Shailasuta- the daughter of Shaila or Mountain king Himalaya, goddess Parvati is the supreme divine feminine, in whom reside all the womanly virtues which are reverential. Her eternal beauty is celebrated in the art of India, where Parvati appears as a youthful female, adorned marvelously and brimming with unparalleled luster. Devi Uma Parvati in this brass state is presented similarly, following the idiom of traditional Devi sculptures. While usually Uma Parvati is depicted in standing or sitting idols, this statue uses the bust style- showing the head and torso of the goddess with meticulous finishing and details.
On a plain platform, the bust of goddess Parvati is placed, which is ornamented exquisitely with hair ornaments, a Bindi (forehead dot), Ekavali (a single-stringed necklace) with other jeweled necklaces, and a Ratnamalika which falls between her breasts, highlighting the heavenliness of Parvati. Her long tresses are tied in a heavy updo, with delicate curls framing her countenance beautifully and the Juda (bun) secured with a floral Srischakra at the back.
With curved brows, elongated lotus eyes, sharp nose, and full, smiling lips, Parvati in this aspect is feminine allure personified. Emanating a celestial aura, Devi in this brass statue becomes the abode and source of fecund energies and auspiciousness of femininity.
