Ashtabhujadharini- the eight-armed, mighty mother goddess Durga is a revered icon in Hinduism, the symbol of strength, divinity, and the power of the primordial feminine or Adishakti.
Her mount is the lion, the king of the jungle and a manifestation of valor and royalty, virtues that the goddess bestows on her devotees.
This superfine brass statue of goddess Durga captures the potent eight-armed form in popular iconography.
Devi Durga sits on the lion or Simha, adorned by a crown with beautiful lotuses marking its aura, necklaces, a floral garland, a finely patterned saree, and other ornaments.
Her primary hands carry the Shankha or conch to declare the commencement of battle and the sing of Abhaya or fearlessness. In Lalitasana or pose of royal ease, goddess Durga emanates an aura of valor and splendor. Her countenance appears activated, with large eyes and a still gaze holding the supreme fire to annihilate the forces of evil. The limbs and ornaments of Maa Durga are beautifully delineated, with fine details on the folds of the saree in the front, incised lines on the hair of the goddess and her lion’s mane, and a sense of realism in the statue.
