Striking an animated posture, balancing his enormous form on his plump legs, and blowing divine tunes into a lute in his hands, the loved elephant-faced Lord Ganesha in this watercolor painting by Achintya Hazra is divinity incarnate on the canvas. Inspired by the wall sculptures of ancient Hindu temples, where Sri Ganesha is often represented as a cosmic musician, filling the sacred space with his auspicious aura, this painting with its masterful balance of colors and a serene visual appeal, is a symbol of unbounded propitiousness in any space it inhabits.
