This poster by T.S. Subbiah features Lord Balaji, adorned with intricate jewelry and a fragrant garland. His four hands hold sacred symbols—the conch (Shankha) and discus (Chakra), while the other two are in Abhaya Mudra, signifying protection and blessings. Enclosed within a conch-shaped frame with a gold-adorned top, the image exudes divine grace. Diyas and incense sticks (Agarbatti) on either side enhance the spiritual ambiance. The poster includes two brand trademarks—Lalita (top left) and Kokila (top right), reflecting the company’s heritage.
N.K. Subbiah Setty & Sons, established in 1932 in Bangalore, were pioneers in South India's agarbathi and incense industry, renowned for their dedication to quality and innovation.
