To her devotees, the Great Goddess is the supreme expression of divine power. ⁣💫

She can manifest in many forms, from the benign to the wrathful—like this figure of Bhadrakali, shown with fanged teeth and flaring eyes tinged with red.

An embodiment of Shiva (shakti), she displays on her forehead the god’s identifiers: the third eye, the crescent moon, and the horizontal marking of his devotees. 🌙 The red border, saturated colors, and merest hint of a landscape setting—just ground and cloudy sky—are all signature elements of the Pahari school of Basohli.⁣

A masterpiece of experiential drama, this is one of most awesome paintings to survive from thee so-called "Ta***ic Devi" series—each of which bears a Sanskrit text in black ink on the reverse to be recited during private meditations on the goddess. ⁣

See it on view through June 9 in "Indian Skies: The Howard Hodgkin Collection of Indian Court Painting."⁣
