About this work
13th Century stone curvings at Konark Sun Temple Puri district, Odisha, India. The central figure in the lower niche is a multi-armed deity, likely a form of Shiva as Nataraja (the Lord of Dance) or an eight-armed Ardhanarishvara (the composite form of Shiva and Parvati). Both figures are prominently featured on the temple's outer walls.
