| Description / विवरण | The fragment shows the goddess Ganga carrying a pot in the raised left hand and leaning on a female attendant. Another female attendant holds a parasol of lotus petals over her head while the two-armed Nandisvara, holding a trident, is to be seen to the extreme right. The group is placed on a narrow pedestal on the back of a makara which is now damaged. Above we see five moldings, the outermost consisting of a lotus creeper emerging from a pot followed by two bands of mithuna couples supported by bharaputrakas, a narrow band showing single figures playing on musical instruments, and a bakulamala terminating in the body of a Naga with serpent canopy. Cf. Cat. 296, Pl. CIII, which formed part of the same doorway surround. |
