As India celebrates 74th Republic Day, Google Doodle depicts elements of parade with intricate artwork

New Delhi, 26/1: As India celebrates its 74th Republic Day, Google commemorated the occassion with a Doodle, illustrated by Gujarat-based guest-artist Parth Kothekar, on many elements of the parade in the national capital.

The Google Doodle has been crafted from intricately hand-cut paper, making sure the different elements of Republic Day find a reflection in it. These include the Rashtrapati Bhavan, the India Gate, North Block and South Block, a contingent and motorcycle-borne ‘Daredevils’.

The doodle depicts the letters ‘g’, ‘o’, ‘g’, ‘l’ and ‘e’ in lowercase black fonts while a circle over the dome of the President’s House symbolically represents the other ‘o’ in ‘Google’.

A peacock and floral patterns add a layer of charm to the art in monochrome.
