Ganesha

This intricate miniature painting depicts a bejeweled Lord Ganesha in a divine dancing pose (Nritya Ganapati) where the left leg is stretched towards the right, signifying movement. He holds a trishula in one of his hands and is accompanied by his vehicle, the rat. The harmonious use of colours, well-defined features and attention to detail from the face to the fold of the attire makes this an exquisite work of art.
