The moment of Maha-Shakti, the great goddess's victory over the forces of Asuras has been exalted and celebrated in Indian tradition in many ways. In a visual celebration of her triumph, this watercolor painting brings to her devotees the aftermath of the battle, when Devi in her various powerful emanations stands on a field covered in the lifeless bodies of demons, as a symbol of the complete annihilation of evil.
The central figure in this painting is Mahakali, who looks bewildering yet tranquil, with her ethereal form and dark-hued form. In the background of the artwork are several Matrikas- Vaishnavi on Garuda, Ayndreyi on the Airavat elephant, Narasimhi (lion-faced goddess), and other Yoginis. Enriched with the potencies of great feminine energy, this painting is a reminder of the ever-victorious goddess and her promise of eternally protecting her children.
