"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.
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.
