Abindranath Tagore painted the Bharat Matha’s picture in 1905, to create nationalist feeling in Indians during the freedom struggle. Later Sister Nivedita, an admirer of the painting, discoursed that the picture was refined and imaginative, with Bharatmata standing on green earth and blue sky behind her; feet with four lotuses, four arms meaning divine power; white halo and sincere eyes; and gifts Shiksha-Diksha-Anna-Bastra of motherland to her children.
Abanindranath Tagore had painted the famous image of Bharat Mata as a four-armed Hindu goddess wearing saffron-colored robes, holding a book, sheaves of rice, a mala, and a white cloth.
