Mahalakshmi is the revered Hindu goddess of wealth, prosperity, fortune, and beauty, and the consort of Lord Vishnu. She represents both material and spiritual abundance, and her various forms include Adi Lakshmi (primordial wealth), Dhana Lakshmi (material wealth), and Vidya Lakshmi (knowledge). Worshipped for blessings of abundance and well-being, she is also a powerful figure who embodies courage and righteousness, having defeated the demon Mahishasura in her Mahakali manifestation.  CLARITY : Tanjore painting is taken with glass so its glaring, if you see directly it looks very beautiful than model picture!
