Women Worshipping a Shiva Linga: Devagandhari Ragini of Hindol, from a Chamba Ragamala, c. 1700. Northern India, Himachal Pradesh, Pahari Kingdom of Chamba. Gum tempera and gold on paper; miniature: 21 x 18.4 cm (8 1/4 x 7 1/4 in.). Removed from any temple setting, the focus of the scene is on the intensity of the womens devotions to the Hindu god Shiva in his abstract form of a linga. The figure on the right tosses flower petals on the linga and offers incense in a handheld censer. Her taller companion wearing a yellow blouse holds two lotus flowers in her hands cupped in devotion as she bows reverently.
