Architectural Design from Sketch Book No.6 10484 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 this postcard sketch, he has studied countryside architecture and depicted it in aerial perspective with a range of pencil strokes that lends tonal variations and brings out the true forms of a rural landscape.
