By more than one line of reasoning, Devi Seeta is the most powerful character of Ramayana. The events of the epic take place because of the decisions She takes of Her own free will, beginning with Her choice of Prince Rama of Ayodhya in Her svayamvara, all the way till She departs into the wilderness Herself post all their trials and tribulations.
She is visualised as such in Indonesian culture. A warrior Devi with deep, omniscient eyes. Pronounced bone structure of limb and hands and feet, which conveys divine potence and grasp. The delicate lines of face and torso. Against deep crimson heavens, the Devi Seeta floats about in a sea of golden sashes.
From the crown on the Devi’s head to every aspect of Her attire and adornment, these aspects of the Tanjore painting are embellished with pure, textured gold. Hints of colour are introduced into the elaborate structure of Her crown and the sashes floating about Her, indicative of precious stones and floral aesthetics.
