    An Ornamental Design - Sketch from Sketch Book No.2 10089 Nandalal Bose Pen and ink on paper

×
In this pen and ink sketch, Nandalal has reproduced a stylised floral motif on a paper, rendered with bold, linear ink strokes, articulating the intricate design. He often made records of the ornamental carvings on historical buildings as Nandalal had a deep appreciation for the rich sculptural and architectural productions of ancient and medieval India and frequently incorporated elements from them into his works.
