Kalyana-Sundaram or the marriage of Uma and Parvati in the Shaiva-Shakta tradition is a heavenly event, celebrated through the enchanting sculptures of the divine duo in the shrine, where Shiva and Parvati can be seen exuding a delicate charm while performing the ritual of Panigrahana or taking of the bride’s hand in marriage. This exquisite copper statue recreates the potent vision of the coming together of Shiva and Shakti, placing the duo on a pedestal beautifully patterned. Shiva stands in a graceful posture, in his form as Pashupati, while extending his hand to hold Uma’s, who blushes slightly infusing the composition with the allure of her heavenliness.
