Raja Ravi Varma | 1903
Lord Dattatreya is shown as a youthful, ascetic deity standing upright with three heads and six arms. The three heads signify the cosmic powers of the Trimurti: Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the preserver), and Shiva (the destroyer). He is adorned with traditional necklaces, rudraksha beads, and a simple dhot-style wrap with a sacred thread across his torso.
