Description
This exquisite painting on silk cloth is a traditional Pattachitra artwork, depicting Hindu Goddess Saraswati, the goddess for wisdom, learning, music, and the arts. Saraswati is shown gracefully playing the veena, a classical Indian stringed instrument, symbolising the harmony of knowledge and creativity. She is adorned with intricate jewellery, a long ornate garland, and her attire features rich patterns, and traditional motifs. In her hands, she holds a manuscript and a lotus, representing wisdom and spiritual enlightenment. She stands on a pedestal with her divine vehicle, the swan (hamsa), depicted at her feet, a symbol of purity and discernment, capable of distinguishing truth from falsehood. A halo behind her head enhances her divine aura, while the decorative floral border adds a sacred elegance to the painting. The use of muted tones, along with intricate detailing, showcases the refined craftsmanship deeply rooted in Odisha and West Bengal traditions.
