Bhagawan Shiva’s Nataraja images are characterized by an elaborate flaming aureole that effectively sets off the exquisite design of the figure’s pose. The form suspends a four-armed Shiva in the midst of dance, presenting a complex juxtaposition of limbs: two back hands evenly extended, two from hands moving outwards with one hand pointing down, the other held up, one leg bent, pressing downwards, and the other lifted, moving upwards and outwards in an impossibly graceful way. This pose creates a powerful rhythm that undoubtedly embodies the awesome energy of Lord Shiva.
While there are various specific iconographic details included in the image, such as the small figure representing ignorance, which Shiva tramples upon (giving us the boon of Jnana), it is certainly the display of arrested movement - simultaneously balanced and energetic, that makes this form the most successful representation of Bhagawan Shiva’s power, delineating the idealized beauty of the Lord's figure.
How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?
Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.
Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.
In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth.
