Today begins Ganesh Chaturthi, a 10-day festival honoring Lord Ganesha, the God of New Beginnings and the Remover of Obstacles. During this celebration, worshippers decorate their homes with devotional images or statues dedicated to the elephant-headed deity. Offerings of sweets such as ladoo (flour, jaggery, and ghee) are made to him, as depicted in this painting. In some places, at the end of the celebration, terracotta statues of Ganesha are carried in procession to the nearest body of water and immersed. Once the terracotta has disintegrated, it is believed that Ganesha’s soul returns to his mother and father, Parvati and Shiva.
