Lakshmi is goddess of prosperity, good fortune, and beauty, first mentioned in the Sri Sukta of the Rigveda. Sri, a honorific term for Lakshmi, represents the material world of the earthly realm as the mother goddess, referred to as Prithvi Mata, and known by her twin identities as Bhu Devi, and Sri Devi (She is having another form along with these two called as Nila Devi). She is the wife of Vishnu, one of the principal deities of Hinduism and the Supreme Being in the Vaishnavism Tradition. With Parvati and Saraswati, she forms Tridevi, the holy trinity. Collectible painting created by highly specialised miniature artists from Rajasthan in India. Each piece painstakingly created with minute strokes of paint over a vintage finish paper. Each base paper may vary slightly in shade; some have vintage stamps placed anywhere on the paper. Unframed Painting that can be put on any wall as is, with or without framing. At the simplest, it can be glued or mounted on a plain chart paper before putting it up. Makes for a memorable and classy gift. As each painting is handmade by an artist, minor variations in colors and patterns to be expected.
