CHAMUNDA Blackstone India , 11th century Dimensions: Height 18 cm by 10 cm Weight: 935,8 grams Chamunda is associated with Kali and Durga and one of the seven matrikas or mother goddesses. She represents old age, death and decay. This representation of her is not as gruesome as usual, sitting in a squat on a double lotus platform, one hand supporting on the knee while the other is placed on the ground. The torso is emaciated but the face looks lively with elongated earlobes and a smile. A pointy archway fills the back.
