The Hindu Temple v2.c12.143

v2.c12.143

The flying four-armed Gaṇa raises a conch shell (?) to his lips while he carries Śiva in a pillared ‘chariot’. The fillet, above the head and upper hands of the Gaṇa, is the edge of the bottom of the chariot. The Gaṇa functions as a console. His image is carved against the enrichments of the lintel and below the corbel on which the image of Śiva is enthroned.
