Nav Grah

Nav Grah 
( The Nine  Planets ) 

12th  Century AD, Kota Museum.

               This piece  is part of a roof as the small ceiling  is done as a blossoming  lotus. Ketu' s figure is slightly damaged. Otherwise the rest of the planetary  figures stand as young gods. The dance-like posture reflects the grace, movement  and rhythm  of life.
