Goddess Durga is one of the most powerful goddesses in Hinduism and she is the incarnation of the collective powers of all the gods and goddesses. She was born to kill the demon Mahishasur who wrought havoc in heaven and earth. The beautiful Batik painting shows the mother goddess killing the demon with weapon. The form of Batik is one of the most popular art forms in India and it reflects a deep sense of pattern and colour.
