One of the most popular goddesses in Hinduism, Goddess Kali is given a detail and refine treatment in the beautiful Batik painting that reveals a sense of gracefulness and accomplishment. She is shown wearing the garland of human skulls, and her bulging lip dipping blood shows the ferocious nature of the goddess. She is trampling over the sleeping figure of Lord Shiva. It is believed that worshipping this ferocious goddess helps rid us from the evil forces.
