Description
English: "The god Shiva in his form as Bichandi or Bhikshatana. The god is white-skinned and nude but for a red loin-cloth and garlands of jewels and skulls. He is four-armed and holds the trident and blood-bowl in two hands, and the drum and deer in the other two hands. His hair is crowned by a flame. A yellow-skinned figure carries a bowl with eyes, on his head, before the god."

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term.

Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
