Description

A large Jain cosmological diagram (Lokapurusha) of the Cosmic Man, Rajasthan, early 20th century, gouache on cloth, 163.5 x 108cm. Lokapurushas depict the relationship between human beings and the cosmos by making a visual comparison between the body and the universe. Here, the cosmic being has the jambudvipa (representing the world and its continents) at its navel, and further levels of heaven and hell are depicted with further more stylised cosmological diagrams and a chessboards pattern above and below the navel. Jinas appear on his face. Good overall, some creases and losses to borders
