It is said that laddoos are the favourite dish for the God of wisdom, Lord Ganesha, one of the most revered gods in Hinduism. It is believed that if we offer sweets to the God he is easily pleased. The batik painting is shown the Ganesha playing with his laddoos. His body and the drapery are well painted. Even the mouse, his vehicle has been given due importance. The prominence of colour has given a special effect in the painting.
