When the goddess Durga eradicated the forces of Mahishasur, emerging victorious from a great battle, Devi and her powerful army- Yoginis, Dakinis, Matrikas, and Ganesha performed the dance of victory. Goddess’ posture in this stunning black marble Devi Durga statue takes us to that divine dance of victory- a powerful symbol of Devi’s sovereignty.
Goddess Durga stands in a rare relaxed and calm posture, with her eight hands holding mighty weapons forming a halo around her presence. The face of Devi in this black marble representation is similar to a young girl- Shakti is visualized as an eternally youthful and beautiful female. The traditional contrast of white lines against the masterfully carved black marble makes this icon a divinely enchanting representation of the goddess Durga. She while constantly evoked in the face of fear and difficulties, always emanates reassuring tranquillity.
Laden with stately ornaments and attire, the form of the goddess is impeccable. Elegance is present in every part of the statute- in the manner Devi stands, the expressions on her face, and the delineation of her aura as an open lotus. Her eyes are closed, and her face carries an inward smile that takes away the troubling thoughts and pulls the mind to the lotus feet of the great mother.
