Interesting bronze representation of Shiva and his parèdre Parvati, which is also known under the name of Mahesvara and Uma. It takes here the name of " Uma-Mahesvara ". The couple sits on a throne on which we identify a buffalo, making reference to Shiva, and a lion, connected to the representation of Parvati.
