The Boy With The Magic Lines By Bishnupriya Chowdhuri
Genre: Children’s Story
Imprint: Jilipi
Illustrations By Ira Nagar
All great artists once were children chasing wildflowers, standing mesmerized under magical sunshine and rain and dreaming on the floating cloud. We devote this series in imagining the childhood days of some of the greatest masters of Bengal School of Art.
This book is inspired from the life of Nandalal Bose who showed us how beauty is around in the rhythms of nature and how art can capture it through simple strokes and hues born from the elements. It is all about finding the magic in the flow of all those lines all around!
This book is for your little one turning your walls into canvases, running after bubbles and speaking to the clouds… Read with them the story of little Nandalal, the boy who knew the magic of lines.
