UNTITLED (SARSWATI)
Signed in English Left CornerSize: 75.7 x 60 cm (29.8 x 23.6 Inches)
The inspiration and subject of this painting is the great Hindu goddess of wisdom, creativity, and arts- Devi Saraswati. The Vedas, Puranas, and epics sing her glories, describing her as the patron of art and artists, the muse behind great works of creativity, and the source of Brahmas creative powers. Her benevolence makes an illiterate into the greatest Sanskrit poet Kalidasa, and her rage takes away Buddhi (wisdom and reason), causing the annihilation of great warriors like Ravana. Powerful, omnipresent, and at the root of the Universe, Saraswati is a mighty manifestation of the Adishakti (primordial feminine energy).
Enthroned on a lovely lotus, Devi Saraswati is adorned in pristine orange, ornate jewelry, and an intricately delineated pointed motif crown. Cradling the Veena, she strums it with her delicate fingers
On the lower left we can see a white Hamsa or swan is Lord Brahma, becoming a student and devotee of the great goddess, who flows in his Creation, manifesting as everything creative and beautiful. The shiny black background compliments the bright and rich orange figure in the centre.
