Légende
Kartikeya, 1800s. Here Kartikeya, god of war and son of Shiva and Parvati, born to annihilate the demon Taraka, is provocatively depicted as a dandy. Sitting astride his vehicle, the peacock, Kartikeya has a Prince Albert hairstyle and buckled European shoes. Fashionably draping his shawl, Karitkeya?s backdrop is a halo created by the peacock?s tail. The painting integrates prevailing Bengali social mores with traditional images and themes.
