    An Anatomical Study from Sketch Book No. 15 10787 Nandalal Bose Pencil on paper

×
This detailed anatomical sketch by Nandalal depicts the skeletal structure of the human spine, clearly labelled with each of its parts. The artist wanted to synthesise artistic visual expression with scientific fact, thus paying minute attention to the form. He has here studied the rhythm of the spine to enrich his skills in figurative renditions.
