Nandalal Bose (1882-1966) popularly known as the Master Moshai, was a disciple of Abanindranath Tagore.

Nandlal was fascinated by the potential of folk art and indigenous modes of expression and inculcated them in his works although stylising them in a unique representation for depiction and narration of local life. He began his artistic career in the fervour of the Swadeshi movement, rejecting western colonial norms of art and taking inspiration from the ancient murals of Ajanta and Bagh caves as well as Mughal miniatures.

In 1919, Nandalal Bose accepted Rabindranath Tagore's invitation to become the Principal of the art school Kala Bhavan at Visvabharati University in Santiniketan. He also painted a series of posters for the Indian National Congress at Haripura in February 1938.

About Durga (Mahishasur Mardini) Preparatory Drawing Nandalal Bose Bengal School Indian Art Painting

Nandalal Bose was one of those painters who fought against all odds in order to pursue his passion. Unlike many other Indian painters, Bose did not have the support of his family. But the trust he had in his own passion and ability, ultimately turned him into one of the most celebrated Indian painters of the 20th Century. During the course of his wonderful career, Bose also earned the trust and respect of the Indian Government, for he was assigned with some of the most prestigious projects by the Government of Independent India. When it comes to his paintings, Nandalal Bose mostly depicted Indian subjects but was not hesitant to use some of the foreign techniques, especially that of Europe’s. Being one of the most favorite students of famous painter Abanindranath Tagore, usage of several techniques became his bread and butter during the course of his tutelage under his master. Nandalal’s contribution towards Indian art is immense, for which he was honored with Padma Vibhushan by the Government of India.
