Portrait of Gandhi as a Young Man

Watercolour illustrations of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi as a young man, for the cover of the book The Making of the Mahatma by Chandran D.S. Devanesen.


The style of these illustrations was deliberately colourful and youthful, to strike a different visual tone to what Gandhi is usually depicted as – and attract a young audience to learning more about MK Gandhi.
