A rare ardha-chandra (crescent moon), adorning the forehead of Krishna, who himself appears as beautiful as the full moon of Purnima, this bronze statue is a Darshana of the powerful Chaturbhuja or four-armed form of Krishna.
Tassels sprouting from his ornaments and attire add an elaborate charm to the statue, which is animated by the inward smile of Krishna, the Lord amused at his Lila.
Fine technique and detailed sculpting of the Panchaloha statue is visible on the reverse of this statue, where the Siraschakra or head ornament, strands of Yajnopavita, and the wrapping of his dhoti are naturalistically delineated.
A representation of Krishna as Param-Brahman, this sculpture from Swamimalai brings to life the essence of Krishna-bhakti.
