Description
This painting was inspired by a bronze statue of Shiva Nataraja from a temple at Thanjavur. It is a close up view of the Shiva showing the outline of his upper right arm which holds the drum of creation (outside the boundary of this painting). His lower right arm is painted with the intertwined cobra and his hand in the Abhaya Mudra - a gesture of peace "Be without fear". Shiva's left hand points toward the dwarf on which he dances - the demon Apasmara which symbolizes Shiva's victory over illusion.
