The gracefulness of the goddess, the distinct use of colours and lines, all have been painted in a most appreciable manner by the painters from Orissa. The goddess is perched on a lotus and she is holding two elephants on her two hands. Saraswati is the goddess of learning and is revered by the students all over the country. She is also a symbol of music and all the musicians worship her cutting across religious lines. Smart use of variegated colours for different objects has yielded the painting a masterly treatement.
