The fourth painting is about Lord vishnu in the avatar of Narasimha. After Lord Vishnu destroyed Hirayaksha, his brother Hiranyakashyap makes severe penance and gets a boon not to be destroyed by any human, animal, god or deamons, either during day or night. After this he declares himself as the lord of all the 3 worlds and becomes the enemy of lord Vishnu. He also destroys Indralok and holds all gods as his prisoners. But his own son Prahlad, is a great devotee or Lord Vishnu and he calls lord vishnu to come out of a Pillar. At this moment Lord vishnu takes the form of Narasimha who is neither and animal nor a human and kills him just during sunset, at the entrance of the door.
This an avatar of lord Vishnu as Lord Varaha Swamy. Lord Vishnu takes this avatar to destroy the deamon Hiranyaksha the brother of Deamon king Hiranyakashyap. Hiranyaksha took Bhudevi into the Patala lokam. To rescue mother earth from this deamon vishnu took the form of Varaha and destroyed this deamon.
