A famous painting called "Parvati and Ganesh" was created by an Indian artist named Jamini Roy. The painting depicts baby Ganesha, who has an elephant head, sitting on his mother Durga's lap. Ganesha is the favorite child of his mother, Parvati, and she lovingly holds him on her lap with a protective arm around him. Jamini Roy used bold and sweeping brushstrokes and limited his color palette to seven vibrant and earthy colors. These colors include Indian red, yellow ochre, cadmium green, vermillion, grey, blue, and white. By rejecting the modern painting style of his time and exploring Bengali folk art, Jamini Roy made a significant impact on the history of Indian modern art.
