in the Art section of Orissa State Museum, Bhubaneswara. There are four images in the collection showing likewise the two-armed Ambikā as seated in lalitasana or mahārāja-lila pose. In all cases, Ambikā is two-armed and holds āmra-lumbi (or a twig with the bunch of mangoes) in her right hand while with left she supports a child. Her elder son, however, stands on her right. The rendering of lion and mango tree could also be seen. All these figures are heavily decked in different ornaments. 12
