Chitrasutra – The Art of Painting in Ancient India in the Light of Vishnudharmottara Purana – Part 1
by Cottage9 Admin
Adi Lakshmi is one of the eight manifestations of Goddess Lakshmi. Adi means primeval or ancient or original. Adi Lakshmi is the first manifestation of Goddess Mahalakshmi, the mother of all the worlds and potential of the supreme lord Vishnu whose consort she is.
This South Indian bronze statue of Goddess Adi Lakshmi seated on lotus is a marvellous artifact created with perfect iconography of the goddess.
Adi Lakshmi is four-armed and seated in sukhasana (relaxed pose) on a perfectly carved lotus pedestal. She holds padma (lotus flower) in each of her upper two hands and her lower hands are in abhaya (granting fearlessness) and varada (boon-granting) postures.
She is crowned beautifully and bedecked with rich, royal jewellery.
A truly awesome example of the mastery South Indian bronze artists have on the art of statue making.
