This large and impressive work is a fantastic example of Panchal's oeuvre. Distinctive, strong, and subtly coloured, it is firmly rooted in his Indian and Hindu sensibility as seen through the prayers being offered to the Lingam in Offerings. The figures hold our attention with their solemn grandeur, and the simplicity of the surroundings suggest that they could be anywhere in the world, giving this work both a timeless quality and universal appeal.
