Description

This image is a vibrant depiction of the Hindu goddess Kali, a prominent deity in Hinduism, particularly revered in Bengal. Kali is shown standing triumphantly over her consort, Shiva, who lies prostrate beneath her feet. She is portrayed with dark skin, four arms, and a fierce expression, symbolizing her power and destructive aspect against evil. In her hands, she holds a sword and a severed head, while her other two hands are in mudras (gestures) conveying fearlessness and granting boons.
