Subject: Lajja Gauri with Ganesha and a devotee: This stone panel carved in the wall of a stepwell contains an image of anthropomorphic Lajja Gauri. The goddess holds lotus flowers to either side of her head. Her coiffure is richly elaborated and she wears beaded ornaments. This image included a lotus base beneath the goddess and an eave with chaitya arched overhead. If anything was to her right it is now lost, but to her left is a kneeling female devotee and Ganesha above the devotee.
