Lord Shiva being Fanned by Parvati

Explanation, only to those who may need one!

Note the "ornaments" of Shiva: A Rudraksha mala (garland of special nuts) and Trishul (trident) in the right hand(s), Damru (a double headed mini-drum which produces notes when shaken through small balls attached on a string hitting the leather parchment at the two ends) in the left hand, snakes as a garland around the neck and among the hair. A kamandal sits on the floor, at the left of the picture. The checker-board motif on which Parvati is seated, is very common among the mats used even today. The ornaments of Parvati, the wide nose ring secured to the ear, a long teeka, the mang-teeka or head (maang) chain, the forearm full of churees (bangles), a broad baaju (bracelet?  around the upper-arm, and the broad anklets, plus the elaborately patterned sari, all signify the paeceful, prosperous, and joyous state of marriage and a living husband; all summed up in one Bihari word,  Suhag!
