Goddesses Marici, the Buddhist goddesses of dawn, 11th century, Uttar Pradesh, India.

This superb large sculpture depicts the Buddhist three-headed sun goddess striding vigorously to the left, her right foot supported on a lotus, her celestial team of eight harnessed and rampant pigs trampling demons below. They are centred on the face of the charioteer Rahu, flanked by four attendants standing in elegant tribhanga adorned in elaborate jewellery and holding floral garlands and flywhisks. The goddess is depicted wearing a belt with festoons suspending pendants, and a long floral garland falling across her body, her principal face with smiling expression, flanked by the head of a sow and a benevolent human face.
