EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Vairevert" from the renowned book "Voyage aux Indes et a la Chine" by Pierre Sonnerat. Engraved by Poisson and published in 1782, this colored engraving is now part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. The image depicts Vairevert, an intriguing deity or manifestation of Shiva, also referred to as Siva. With a trident in hand and a begging bowl nearby, Vairevert emanates an aura of power and aggression. The intricate details on the engraved print highlight the god's destructive nature, symbolized by skulls surrounding him. As the son of Shiva, Vairevert is often associated with punishment and destruction. His presence signifies both fear and reverence within Hinduism. This portrayal captures his essence perfectly - fierce yet divine. The use of vibrant colors adds depth to this historical artwork while preserving its original beauty. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage found in ancient Hindu mythology. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this piece from Fine Art Finder without infringing upon any commercial rights associated with it. Through this photograph print, viewers can appreciate the artistry behind Sonnerat's work while immersing themselves in the mystical world of Hindu deities like Vairevert.
