Vishnu and Shri Supported by Garuda

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts Vishnu and Shri supported by Garuda. The sculpture is made of dark gray stone. It features three main figures: two large central figures and one smaller figure at the bottom. The central figures are male. The figure on the left has a tall, tiered conical headdress and multiple necklaces; he sits with one leg bent and the other extended. The figure on the right sits with both legs bent; the figure wears a similar conical headdress but smaller. The left arm of the figure on the right rests on the other's shoulder. A third, smaller, figure kneels at their feet. The background features an arch with intricate carvings, including small figures and ornate details, with smaller sitting figures on either side at the base.
