Dear Martin,
paintings depicting the navagraha you find in nearly each Buddhist
monastery in Sri Lanka up to 200 years old.

Many thanks, from Sonja as well, to all who replied so far. Meanwhile,
I have been told that paintings of the Navagrahas seem to be less
common than sculptures, so if anyone knows of such paintings, they
would be of particular interest.
Best wishes,
Martin Gansten

Hi Martin,
Depending on how far Sonja wants to cast the net, there are also the
purely abstract gaming pieces for Krishnaraja Wodeyar III's
Navagrahākṣakrīḍā game designed c. 1833 CE. See attachments (photo

Best,
Jacob Schmidt-Madsen

Sonja Brentjes, who is working on the history of astral iconography
but is not a member of this list, sent me this question, which I am
passing on with her permission:
Do you know perhaps miniatures of the Navagrahas and can you
recommend me online collections or good publications? We have found
a few from the 18th century, but nothing before.
If anyone should know of such collections or publications, please
reply to me and/or the list, and I'll pass the information on.
Many thanks in advance,
Martin Gansten
