Devi Sarasvati, wife of Brahma, queen of the veena. She is the presiding deity over learning and the fine arts; and as such the veena is indispensable to Her iconography. The Sarasvati that you see on this page conforms to the norm and depicts Her dancing to the sound of Her veena. The four arms of the chaturbhujadharini are intact: while the anterior ones cradle the long, slender body of the musical instrument, the posterior ones wield the rosary and a pothi.
