The 19th Jain Tirthankara Mallinatha image from a Jain temple 10th -11th century in sandstone. His only adornment is the srivatsa mark on his chest and characteristic whorls around the nipples. The Thrthankara holds two large disc-shaped lotus blossoms in each hand while his arms hang away from the body in a pose representing body abandonment. He stands on a cloth which bears an inscription, 'Mali', which may identify the figure as the 19th Tirthankara, Mallinatha. The Thirthankara is flanked by two attendants with fly whisks, celestial garland bearers and elephant riders. At the top of the panel is another Tirthankara seated in the pose of meditation, flanked by two saints.
