Vishnu and Lakshmi

This damaged "wide" panel on the north shows Vishnu seated in lalitasana with Lakshmi on his lap. The left half of the image is missing but Vishnu can be identified by the mace he holds in his left hand and the kneeling Garuda image at the bottom-left. Lakshmi holds a pot-of-wealth and her foot rests gently on a lotus. Both images are adorned with elaborate crowns and jewelry. The plaque below the image is not signed but filled with scrollwork.
