    An Anatomical Study from Sketch Book No. 15 10790 Nandalal Bose Pencil on paper

×
This detailed anatomical sketch by Nandalal depicts the skeletal structure of the human torso (the neck and chest). The artist wanted to synthesise artistic visual expression with scientific fact and hence engaged with such minute attention to the form. He has here studied part of the human anatomy to lend authenticity to his figurative renditions.
