A Varahi artwork, not an identified Panchasagar shrine
The bronze shown here is held by the Cleveland Museum of Art under accession 1978.70. The museum identifies it as a Nepalese Varahi sculpture from the 1300s. It provides a documented example of the Goddess in art.
The geographical identity of Panchasagar is a separate and unresolved question in this directory. Neither the sculpture's origin nor its present museum location tells us where the Peetha should be placed.
