Tanjore Paintings of Lord Ganesha


In this extraordinary Tanjore painting, Panchamuki Ganesha - master of intellect and wisdom is depicted as five headed deity.The Lord Panchamuki Ganesha while holding trisula, mace, axe..etc extends the gestures of protection to his devotees. It is believed that Panchamuki Ganesha is the embodiment of all potencies and strengths.

The uniqueness in this painting is all five heads are not in same plane three heads in one and other two arranged on top.The mouse near the lord personifies evil qualities like anger, too much of pride and selfishness by riding on it the Lord controls all evil qualities.

The borders are aesthetically designed which glorify cultural richness. Rich colours used here are a unique portrayal of this painting and reflects unparalled artistic virtues.
