    Gurudev and a Dancer 4911 Nandalal Bose Print - Dry Point

×
Nandalal explored a wide range of traditions to arrive at his unique visual language and has left behind a large corpus of works in a wide variety of styles, expressions and techniques. In the above print the artist depicts a female dancer with her ‘Gurudev’ (teacher) practicing dancing. Rendered with sharp, thin lines incised in a copper plate and transferred on the plain surface with the use of black ink. The firm yet fluid strokes suggest the contours of the figures and adds grace in the composition.
