This photograph, taken by Isidore Kinsbergen in the mid-19th century, depicts a 9th-century stone relief of the Hindu goddess Durga slaying the demon Mahisha. Durga is depicted with ten arms, though one is missing, wielding various weapons and standing victorious over the demon, who lies defeated at her feet. This is a striking example of Hindu iconography, found on the Dieng Plateau in Central Java, Indonesia.
