EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print depicts a revered representation of Shiva, the central deity in Hinduism, in his dual roles as the Destroyer and Reproducer. Dating back to the circa 1920s, this image captures the essence of Sri Lankan Hindu culture and the deep spiritual connection its people have with their gods. Shiva, also known as Siva or Sivam, is one of the principal deities in the Hindu pantheon. He is often depicted with multiple arms, each holding various symbols of creation, destruction, and protection. In this image, Shiva is shown in a serene and thoughtful pose, with a third eye on his forehead, symbolizing his omniscience. The peacock standing beside Shiva is a significant symbol in Hinduism. It is believed that the peacock is the vehicle for the goddess Saraswati, who represents music, knowledge, and speech. The peacock's vibrant plumage and mesmerizing eyes are said to represent the infinite wisdom and beauty of the universe. Monks, followers, and priests of various Hindu traditions would have paraded such representations of their deities during religious processions and festivals. These figures served as models for the faithful, inspiring devotion and providing a tangible connection to the divine. The intricate details of this photograph print offer a glimpse into the rich symbolism and deep spirituality of Sri Lankan Hinduism during the early 20th century.
