| Description / विवरण | The God embraces his consort, holding her lightly under the breast while she has her right arm thrown around his shoulders. The couple are seated on a lotus having the shape of a fiat, grooved disc; the flower is borne on a stalk with winding shoots and leaves supporting geese. The pendant legs of the couple rest on subsidiary lotus pedestals next to which are the bull and Lion vahanas, a badly mutilated image of Bhrngi, and a seated devotee. To the side are attendant figures below whom are damaged figures of Ganesa and Karttikeya. At the bottom, in a register, are seven ganas, the central one supporting the slab, the others in a playful mood. Behind the couple are pilasters topped by alingana-murtis of Brahma and Visnu with their consorts, on the left and right sides respectively. The side offsets contain the usual decorative motifs of vyalas on elephant heads and makaras with warriors. On top is a mutilated miniature image of a four-armed male Divinity flanked by flying Vidyadhara couples. |
