About the piece
Created in late 19th-century Calcutta, this watercolor is a classic example of Kalighat painting, known for its bold outlines and saturated colors. The work depicts Lakshmi, goddess of prosperity, and Sarasvati, goddess of knowledge and music, each gracefully poised upon a lotus bloom. The stylized lily pads and rhythmic composition reflect the school's unique blend of traditional Indian motifs and modern visual economy.
