"Siva Drinking World Poison" is a depiction of the Hindu god Shiva, a significant figure in Indian mythology, drinking the poison Halahala. The painting, executed by Nandalal Bose, a prominent figure in the Bengal School of Art, highlights a crucial moment in the story of the churning of the ocean, where Shiva consumed the poison to save the world from its destructive effects. The artwork showcases Bose's mastery in depicting religious narratives through his use of traditional Indian painting techniques and a vibrant color palette dominated by warm tones.
