One of the most intriguing and beautiful images of the Hindu god Ganesha in ancient temples is his sculptures as a musician and dancer decorating the sacred structure.
Ganesha as a musician has become a symbol of auspiciousness. Animating this granite stone artwork with a divine melody, Ganapati appears as a flute player.
On a simple granite slab, Ganesha sits in a graceful pose, with a head tilted to place the flute on his mouth. A smile appears on his face, further enhancing the liveliness of the statue.
Sculpted in a rounded manner, the statue is beautifully finished, with a natural smoothness given to the granite stone, a difficult-to-attain feat due to the hardness of the material and the skills required to seamlessly work on it, making this Ganesha statue an example of the dextrousness of the Indian sculptor.
