"Narthan Vinayakar" (Tamil) or Nritya Ganapati (Sanskrit) is the name that evokes in the devotee's imagination the image of a blissfully dancing Ganesha, who in between the Laasya of his mother Parvati, and Tandava of Shiva, stands as a purely divine celebration, infusing in the three realms a heavenly auspiciousness. The Panchaloha tradition captures the dynamism and exquisiteness of dancing Ganesha, in bronze statues such as this one, where the serenity and animation of the plump dancing Ganapati are balanced iconographically. Here we see Ganesha placed on a bronze platform, whose make suggests that it is used in carrying the icon in festive processions. With his right leg raised in the Kunchita pose, a regally ornamented Ganesha commands devotion. The physicality of the elephant-faced deity engrossed in ecstatic dance has been masterfully condensed in metal, with his large belly highlighted with a flesh fold, huge head thrown back mid-movement, and four arms sculpted as a natural extension of this plump form. Sculpted stunningly with intricate details, in a rounded manner, this Panchaloha Nritya Ganapati represents the unparalleled beauty of Swamimalai bronzes.
