The exquisite beauty and charm of Lord Krishna is perfectly depicted in this Lord Krishna wooden sculpture. He is one of the most loved gods, famous for his naughty leelas and that innate nature of protection, compassion and love. As you zoom in, you will be mesmerized by the superfine carvings of every minutest detail that blends along with the dual shade of this wooden sculpture, producing its best possible patterns. Lord Krishna stands here on a small lotus pedestal which is placed on a floral base beautified with a large Vishnu Dashavatara aureole. All the ten Vishnu incarnations are shaped in a sequence depicting all their individualistic features and natures of characters in a realistic form. The entire aureole is decorated with an ethnic border design and a large Kirtimukha face, topped as the guardian deity.
Lord Krishna stands in his ever-so-famous tribhanga posture, holding the flute near his mouth and plays the best of his melodious tunes that can woo the devotees by its purity and spirituality. He is adorned in beauteous garbs, densely embellished in varied jewels that veil his entire self. The thick flower garland that flows towards the side is a mark of Lord Krishna’s superiority and immense beauty. The sculptor has given his laborious time to carve this wooden Krishna statue, as all posture, cuts and curves are accurately done, with the sharp facial features expressing his poised behaviour.
Krishna’s two posterior hands carry Lord Vishnu’s iconic weapons of Chakra and Conch. The multiple layered crown is chiselled in exclusive designs with its style inspired by the South Indian temple style carvings. The unique patterns and superfine work of this large wooden Krishna sculpture is a great attraction to the eyes. This Krishna statue is a marvellous ornamentation wherever it is placed.
How to care for Wood Statues?
Wood is extensively used in sculpting especially in countries like China, Germany, and Japan. One feature that makes the wood extremely suitable for making statues and sculptures is that it is light and can take very fine detail. It is easier for artists to work with wood than with other materials such as metal or stone. Both hardwoods, as well as softwood, are used for making sculptures. Wood is mainly used for indoor sculptures because it is not as durable as stone. Changes in weather cause wooden sculptures to split or be attacked by insects or fungus. The principal woods for making sculptures and statues are cedar, pine, walnut, oak, and mahogany. The most common technique that sculptors use to make sculptures out of wood is carving with a chisel and a mallet. Since wooden statues are prone to damage, fire, and rot, they require proper care and maintenance.
It is extremely important to preserve and protect wooden sculptures with proper care. A little carelessness and negligence can lead to their decay, resulting in losing all their beauty and strength. Therefore, a regular clean-up of the sculptures is a must to prolong their age and to maintain their shine and luster.
