    Architectural Design from Sketch Book No.6 10461 Nandalal Bose Pencil on paper

×
Nandalal had a keen fascination for studying the architectural traits particular to different regions and also observed the modifications in them with the change in terrains. In the sketch above, he has studied a traditional architectural structure. He called it the house of Trimbak Roa as the inscription suggests and swiftly executed this sketch in loose, smudged strokes while the pencil shading provides a three-dimensionality to the form.
