3 Siva-Parvati with Nandi Mottled sandstone Mathura region
Ca. 5th Century A.D 17.5 x 12.5 x 5.0 cms.
The haloed couple, Siva and Parvati, is standing close together, with Siva's left hand on Parvati's shoulder while Nandi, the vehicle of Siva, sits on the ground behind them facing to the right. Legs of all the figures below the knees seem to be mutilated. Due to even ageing the sculpture has assumed a smooth and rounded appearance which links its ancestry to the Mathura sculptures of that period.
