This divine goddess of wealth, fortune, love, prosperity and devotion is considered to be the favourite goddess in the Hindu pantheon; painted with the wax-resist dyeing technique on a super blooming double lotus pedestal, therefore also regarded as Padmavati.
Goddess Lakshmi is highly associated with the sacred and auspicious red color, symbolizing wealth and prosperity, as shown in this painting with a red colored lotus and also garbed in a red dhoti with floral motifs and a contrasting top. Her lalitasana posture, blessing mudra and the wealth pot that she holds are the iconographic aspects of her beauty and wealthiness. The expression of her eyes and the slight smile highlight her serenity in a decent manner; adorned with marvellous jewels and a flashy crown along with the sacred vehicle, owl peeping in the front.
The painter has beautifully depicted the heavenly background with the aureole of bright light emerging out from the cosmic deity, while the spreading waves of divine knowledge and wisdom are shown with wavy brush strokes at the top. The interplay of various colors of the palette makes this masterpiece more attractive with the water flowing at an ease at the bottom and the vigilant heavenly winds blowing at the top.
