Sky reaching the earth as if to take a dip in the holy waters of the Ganga, the scenic beauty of this painting, Monsoon Evening at Varanasi Ghat is mesmerizing. Against the faint backdrop of a misty sky whose beauty is mirrored in the flow of the Ganga, the city of Varanasi on the banks of the river is enlivened with crowds of devotees and ascetics. Figures are placed all over the riverside, and on the boats floating on the waters, giving one an idea of the hubbub of Varanasi. With brilliant use of brushstrokes that recreate the dynamism of Ganga and the holiness of the sacred city, this painting is like a window to the abode of Shiva.
