Standing Parvati

Standing Parvati. Culture: Indian (Tamil Nadu). Dimensions: H. 27 3/8 in. (69.5 cm). Date: ca. first quarter of the 10th century. Parvati is the consort of Shiva and mother of the elephant-headed god Ganesha. This magnificent statue is one of the finest Chola representations of Parvati found outside India.
