"The most important thing is to be whatever you are without shame." - Rod Steiger
This exquisite brass sculpture captures a soul in reverence, embracing vulnerability. The figure's kneeling posture signifies humility and authenticity. With eyes closed, the individual is enveloped in a moment of introspection. The sculpture stands as a mirror, reflecting the strength in embracing one's true self, free from societal masks. Its handmade nature adds imperfections, celebrating the beauty of uniqueness. As it graces your space, it becomes a silent companion, a testament to the strength that lies in baring the soul's unadorned truth.
Possessing the power to create and remove obstacles, Ganesha is an intensely popular Hindu deity. The origins of Ganesha's elephant head, his most distinctive feature, vary widely depending upon the sacred text consulted. One narrates a tale wherein he is beheaded by Siva whose aniconic form he is shown worshipping here.
Sitting in the position of royal ease, his demeanour seems that of obeisance as he offers flowers to the Shiva linga. His backhands hold his usual attributes, the ankusha and the pasa; the front hands hold the bunch of flowers for the ritual. Ganesha's trunk falls straight and then turns towards the left. His lower garment is as intrinsically carved as his crown. His shoulder cloth falls on either side. The richly bejeweled crown has a prabhavali at the back.
The attributes of one Ganesha image can not be very different from the other but the novelty lies in its presentation, the way the gold polish is used and the details worked upon.
