Goddess Kamalatmika ca. 1880β85. West Bengal, Calcutta. Designed and published by The Hindu Art Studio
The beautiful and benign goddess Kamalamika, the β[red] lotus lady,β is a tantric form of Lakshmi, Hinduismβs embodiment of all that is auspicious and abundant. As the goddess of wealth and prosperity, Lakshmi is most often depicted being lustrated by heavenly elephants where she is known as Gaja-Lakshmi.
In her esoteric aspect as Kamalamika, she is enthroned on a red-lotus pedestal that rises from the silvered waters of a mountain lake, evoking her divine nature. Another flower bud serves as her footrest. In her four arms she displays lotus buds and a bloom and extends auspicious gestures to her devotees. In the heavenly skies above four white elephants hold golden pitchers (lota) in their extended trunks, allowing the waters to cascade upon the head of the goddess, empowering her with the life affirming waters that ensure abundance in all things. Ice-grey mountains rise majestically behind her, framing her in the glowing white of the Himalayan peaks beyond. (via The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Tara 1885β1890. Publisher: Calcutta Art Studio. Lithograph Dimensions 11 15/16 x 16 1/16 in. / 30.3 x 40.8 cm. At bottom: Calcutta Art Studio 185 Bowbazar St
This print belongs to a set of five prints depicting the 10 Mahavidyas. The Mahavidyas, who first appear in late medieval Hinduism, are considered to be individual incarnations or manifestations of the Great Goddess, paralleling the ten incarnations of Vishnu.
An origin story relates them to ten forms assumed by Shiva's wife Sati, in her anger over the disrespect her father, Daksha, showed toward Shiva.
The Mahavidyas were particularly honored in the Bengal region. Tara appears similar to Kali, but she is pregnant and wears a tiger skin. She is depicted standing in a cremation ground surrounded by blazing fires. (via Museum of Fine Arts Boston)

The Mahavidyas were particularly honored in the Bengal region. The first of the five prints, this image depicts Kali naked, holding a severed head and a bloody cleaver, and wearing a garland of skulls as well as a belt of severed arms. She stands astride a prostrate Shiva and is accompanied by jackals. (via Museum of Fine Arts Boston)
