DEVIDASA (attribué). Sadashiva worshipped by Parvati

DEVIDASA (attribué). Wearing a snow-leopard skin draped over his shoulders, Sadashiva sits with the goddess on a mauve-petalled lotus floating against an orange-colored ground. Dominating the composition, his large, ash-white body captures the focus of the viewer's attention as well as that of the goddess, whose gaze is fervid and alert. The five-headed deity has eight arms that hold (clockwise from the top right) a drum, snake, noose, bell, axe, grain sheath, trident, and sword. Date: ca. 1690. Origin: Nurpur, Himachal Pradesh state, India. Opaque watercolor, gold, and applied beetle wing on paper.
