Hindu Gods & Goddesses Prints

Filter

    Lakshmi for prosperity, Saraswati for learning, Ganesha to clear the way before anything begins. The whole Hindu pantheon, drawn from old chromolithographs and painted folios — Durga mid-battle, Hanuman with a mountain in one hand, Krishna and Radha, Shiva with his family around him.

    These are the images people keep by a doorway, or give at a wedding or a housewarming. A focused part of the wider Indian art prints, which also hold the Ragamala paintings and palace scenes.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why are Hindu gods shown with symbolic objects?

    The objects a deity holds are a visual language that tells you who they are and what they govern. Vishnu's conch stands for the primordial sound of creation and his discus for cosmic order; Shiva's trident marks the three forces of creation, preservation and dissolution; Saraswati's veena and book signify music and learning. Multiple arms let a figure hold several of these at once — powers held together rather than in turn.

    Which Hindu deities are traditionally kept in the home?

    Several deities are traditionally welcomed into Indian homes. Ganesha, who removes obstacles, is often placed near an entrance; Lakshmi, goddess of prosperity, is kept in the home and worshipped at Diwali; Saraswati, goddess of learning, suits a study or a child's room. The right choice is usually the deity a family already keeps.
