TWO IMAGES OF VARDHAMANA (PLATE XCI)
The statues figured in this plate are identified as being representations of Vardhamna by the lions in the pedestals. The defaced inscription in early characters of the right hand figure begins with the word namo, " homage." That figure is seated under his sacred tree. One of his attendants is a Naga, with a canopy of cobra hoods; The other image is seated under a small canopy. Both figures are attended by Gandharvas, hovering in the air and offering garlands. |
