Description
This remarkable antique votive figure is an embodiment of Indo-Himalayan religious craftsmanship, likely from the 15th to the 17th century or earlier. Measuring 7 cm in height and 3 cm in width (approximately 2.76 inches by 1.18 inches), and 2 cm in depth (approximately 0.79 inches), the bronze sculpture is distinguished by its excavation patina. It represents an anthropomorphic deity with an elephant head and four arms, a classic representation of Ganesha, with a rosette disc behind the head symbolizing the divine aura. Such figures were significant in devotional practices and used in various ritualistic contexts. The intricate casting and aged patina highlight the historical value and spiritual significance of this piece, making it a profound addition to any collection of sacred art.
