Ganesh Pyne’s intense and holy composition features several studies of the goddess Durga, each endowed with determined, lyrical and definite lines. Pyne's mastery of ink and paint breathes life into Durga's mythical story, emphasising her position as the conqueror of evil. The grid background contrasts the chaos of heavenly warfare with the order of creation, representing the balance of destruction and harmony and Pyne’s deep reverence towards folk study.
