Description

India, 19th-early 20th century AD. Cast bronze figure of the Hindu god Narasimha shown with the head of a lion and the body of a man with four arms; upper right holding discuss (chakra), upper left holding conch (Shanka), across his lap is the demon Hiranyakashipu being disemboweled. 2.1 kg, 24.5cm (9 3/4"). Private collection, London, UK; acquired prior to 1990. Narasimha (meaning Man-Lion) is the fourth incarnation, or avatara, of Vishnu. According to myth Vishnu took this form to protect his devotee Prahlada from the persecutions of his father the demon king Hiranyakashipu. The god Brahma had promised the king he would not meet death at the hands of men, beasts, gods or demons, and that he would not die either inside or outside a building, by day or night, nor by any weapon. Finally, provoked by the prayers of Prahlada, Vishnu burst out a column in the porch of the palace (neither inside or outside) and grabbed the demon at dusk (neither day or night) and killed him with his claws as the man lion Narasimha (neither human, beast, god or demon). Made in Bastar region, central India. [No Reserve]
