PLATE XX

Viṣṇu Slays the Demons

While Viṣṇu slumbered on Ananta (see Plate XI), two demons, Madhu and Kaitabha, sprang from his ear and sought to destroy Brahmā; but the deity awakened and slew them. From a painting in a Sanskrit manuscript. After Hendlev, Ulwar and its Art Treasures, Plate LXIII.
