The heavenly brilliance of Vishnu's Varaha incarnation with an air of grandeur triumphs over the monster Hiranyaksha, having saved the earth goddess Bhumi from oceanic depths. Encircled by vibrant lotuses and undulating waves, the minute detailing creates a visual harmony that transports the spectator on a mythical voyage where old tales are revived with modern splendour. Seema Kohli’s style, wedded with ancient tales from the mythological pool of India, allocates the painting with symbolic concepts of preservation, sustenance and triumph over evil.
