Description

A BUFF SANDSTONE STELE OF LAKSHMI-NARAYANA, RAJASTHAN OR MADHYA PRADESH, 11TH-12TH CENTURY

India. Finely carved, Vishnu seated in a relaxed pose, his head framed by an openwork nimbus, one hand resting on his bent right knee, the other supporting his consort Lakshmi, who lies atop him on her side. The figures are modestly dressed in diaphanous dhotis and richly adorned with beaded jewelry, their hair pulled away from their serene faces in stylized chignons and crowned with elaborate headdresses. The divine duo is attended by celestial beings and attendants, one appearing to row a makara-form boat.

Provenance: From the private collection of Olivier Maréchal, Belgium, acquired in India in 2007. A copy of a provenance statement, written and signed by Olivier Maréchal, dated 20 February 2025, confirming the above, accompanies this lot. Olivier Maréchal (b. 1973) is a noted Belgian collector and dealer specializing in the arts of India, Vietnam, and Thailand. He began his career in the mid-1990s, learning from his father who helped him with his first purchases. He later managed Surya Gallery in Brussels, Belgium.
