EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th/17th-century double-sided painted banner, known as a Paubha, showcases the divine figures of God Shiva and Goddess Durga. The intricate artwork is rich in color and detail, reflecting the artistic mastery of its unknown creator. On one side of the banner, we see the powerful goddess Durga gracefully dancing atop a majestic white snow lion. Her multi-armed form exudes strength and beauty as she holds various symbolic objects representing her divine attributes. Adorned with a crown and an elaborate headdress, she radiates grace and power. The other side reveals the presence of God Shiva, another significant deity in Hinduism. Though not depicted in dance like Durga, his serene countenance suggests deep contemplation and spiritual wisdom. His body is adorned with vibrant pigments and gold accents that highlight his divine nature. This remarkable piece originates from Nepal, showcasing Nepalese artistry at its finest. The use of pigment and gold on cotton adds to its allure while preserving it for centuries to come. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's Arts of Asia gallery, this paubha serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence across time periods. Its historical significance lies within its ability to transport viewers into ancient realms where gods walked among mortals. As we admire this masterpiece today, let us appreciate the skillful craftsmanship that has allowed us to witness such profound expressions of faith through art.
