Kali Standing Triumphantly Over Shiva's Corpse Art Print
Couldn't load pickup availability
Kali standing triumphantly over Shiva’s corpse came off a limestone slab at 185 Bowbazar Street and walked into Bengali bedrooms. The Calcutta Art Studio, opened in 1878 by Annada Prasad Bagchi and four Government School of Art alumni, priced each chromolithograph for the household shrine. Thin paper carrying this enormous goddess.
Indigo-black ink fills the sheet, four arms flung wide beneath silver needle-rays. One left hand hoists a curved khadga slick with vermilion. The other grips a bearded head by its hair. Both right palms open in blessing, the lower stained alta crimson, and conch-shell bangles ring every wrist. A mundamala of ochre-faced heads swings to her knees above a girdle of severed arms.
Her right foot leads, the Dakshina Kali stance, planted on Shiva gone ash-gray in his tiger skin. A cobra rears beside his arm. Shakta teaching names him shava, the body waiting for her to move. Crowned gods crowd the amber smoke overhead. Hang this Hindu goddess art print and the new-moon midnight of Kali Puja moves in, carmine tongue first.

Wall Art Size Guides
Framed Art Prints
1. Vertical
Use the sawtooth hanger at the top middle on the back of the frame and hang it on a single screw or nail.
2. Horizontal
Hang the two sawtooth hangers on two screws or nails at the same heightPut two screws or nails in the wall at the same height, spaced the same distance apart as the two sawtooth hangers, then hang your print on them.
Framed Canvas
1. D-rings (most secure)
Screw a D-ring onto the back of the frame on the left and right, both at the same height. A ruler helps here. Then put two screws in the wall where you want your canvas, level with each other and spaced the same distance apart as the D-rings. A spirit level makes this easier. Finally, hook the D-rings onto the screws.
2. Straight onto screws
Keep it simple: put two screws in the wall at the same height and rest the inner lip at the top of the back of the frame on them.
