The princely avatars of Vishnu, the Lord Rama stands with His durbar (court) comprising the beauteous wife Seeta, the faithful brother Lakshmana, and the devoted servant Hanuman. A set of four discrete statuettes, each with its own plinth and pedestal, whose dimensions are in keeping with the proportions of the respective figurines.
This ensemble is made from panchaloha, a bronze made from gold, silver, copper, zinc, and iron. It explains the gold-like sheen of the murtis as well as the superior texture imbued with a wealth of detail. Every pleat and ornament on the figures of Rama, Seeta, Lakshmana, and Hanuman - in descending order of height - is carved with remarkable precision.
Each murti has been cast using the lost-wax metalcasting technique, expounded in the shastras as madhuchista vidhana. It is not only the make that follows the exacting standards of tradition, but also the finish. For example, the bows and quivers of arrows that are integral to the Ayodhya princes’ iconography and the immutable beauty of the much-loved Seeta.
