Original - An 18-century painting of blue-skinned
Vishnu along with
Lakshmi flying through the sky on the
Garuda — a portrayal dubbed "Avatar the prequel"[1] for its conceptual similarity with a scene in
James Cameron's
Avatar film - Painting in
LACMA from Rajasthan, Bundi, c.1730
Reason
Unique, ancient original painting of the blue-skinned Hindu god
Vishnu riding the gigantic bird
Garuda. This is a very traditional image in Hinduism, which a reporter from San Francisco Examiner recently dubbed
"Avatar the prequel" It is slightly substandard per the recommended resolution, but I am not aware of any higher resolution version of it.
Oppose. I was actually getting rather excited then- I'd love to support some images of Hindu deities, but this one is just much too small. The original will have been far larger.
