EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print depicts the revered Hindu goddess Lakshmi, the deity of wealth and prosperity, being lustrated or purified by a pair of majestic elephants. The goddess is shown in a cross-legged position, known as Padmasana or Lotus Position, with her arms gesturing in a welcoming and blessing pose. Lakshmi is adorned with golden jewelry, intricate floral decorations, and a diadem, adding to her regal and divine appearance. The elephants, revered in Hinduism as sacred animals, touch the goddess with their trunks, symbolizing the bestowal of their blessings and the purification of her form. The intricate details of the goddess's body, the delicate lotus flowers, and the textured surface of the elephants' bodies are all testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of this 18th century artifact. Originating from either India or Southeast Asia, this print is a stunning example of the rich artistic heritage of the Asian continent and the deep-rooted spiritual traditions of Hinduism. Currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), this print invites us to contemplate the beauty and significance of this ancient belief system and the enduring power of art to connect us with the divine.
