EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century watercolor on paper depicts the revered Hindu deities Shiva and Parvati, also known as Shiva and Gauri or Shiva and Uma. The image captures the couple in their divine forms, with Shiva in his full regalia, adorned with a third eye, serene expression, and the crescent moon in his matted hair. Parvati, the goddess of love, fertility, and marriage, is depicted as a graceful and elegant figure, adorned with ornaments and flowers. Shiva and Parvati are shown standing in front of a magnificent pavilion, surrounded by lush greenery and exotic animals, including a majestic bull, Nandi, and an elephant. The architectural details of the pavilion suggest that this artwork originated from the Mandi region of Himachal Pradesh in northern India, a renowned center for Hindu art and architecture during the 18th century. The use of opaque watercolor on paper gives the image a rich and vibrant texture, with intricate details that bring the divine figures and their surroundings to life. The colors are bold and vivid, with Shiva's white skin contrasting beautifully with the red and gold hues of Parvati's attire. This artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Hinduism in South East Asia and India, and a reminder of the deep spiritual significance of the deities Shiva and Parvati in Hindu mythology. It is a rare and precious piece of art that continues to inspire awe and reverence, and a valuable addition to any collection of Asian or religious art.
