Description
Bronze. India-Nepal, 18th cent.
An exceptional, well-executed and rare depiction of a nearly naked goddess with accentuated round breasts. As she is not wearing a crown, she possibly depicts one of the goddesses who are personifications of nature, perhaps a "life giving" Sita. Furthermore, beautifully composed facial features, very big beaded earrings, large hair bun. Richly bejeweled breasts, arms and hip band. Her fingers are spiritedly modeled, one hand holds symbolically a lotus blossom in front of her. The goddess stands in gentle tribhanga, feet are missing. Strong age patina, presumably remains of former color. Very good mounting on a tall wooden pedestal.
HEIGHT 28,6 CM (WITHOUT BASE, WITH 41,5 CM)
From a German private collection
