Nandalal undertook extensive studies to comprehend the diversity in form, essence and treatment that was employed through the centuries by artisans and architects in the Indian classical art, the folk arts and temple architecture. His rich insights of the native art practices allowed him to experiment and blend with ease and spontaneity the elements of each in an astonishingly free manner. This sketch is an apt example where the artist has made a visual record of an elaborately ornate doorjamb with multiple rows of geometric patterns, animal and bird motifs.
