About Vishnu And Lakshmi Late 18Th Century Vintage Indian Miniature Art Painting
According to sanatana dharma, the ‘eternal law’ of Hinduism, all creation emanates from a single Absolute Consciousness which is made manifest in the diverse pantheon of Hindu gods and goddesses. Among them, the trimurti of Brahma 'the Creator’, Vishnu ‘the Preserver’ and Shiva ‘the Transformer’ in their various forms are supreme. As part of Hindu worship, murti or votive images are venerated as physical embodiments of the Divine. Here Vishnu, in his para (‘highest’) form and his consort Lakshmi, the goddess of fortune, are depicted as if idols on a pedestal but also as real, physical beings. He wears a tall crown with a nimbus surrounding his head like the emperors of earlier Mughal paintings. She is dressed as a princess adorned with fine jewellery holding a lotus flower in one hand.
