描述

  • Gilt-bronze
debout en pratyalidhasana, les six bras présentant ses attributs dont le rosaire de têtes, un serpent autour du cou, le corps ventru orné de bijoux incrustés de pierres dures, ses longs cheveux rouges dressés autour de son visage courroucé à trois yeux

Condition

The figure is missing its base. It is quite heavy and richly gilt (now matte and dirty). There is bright turquoise patina to the feet where the figure may have been exposed to humidity or water. The figure is missing attributes held in 3 of its hands, missing one earring as well as some part that was attached to the back (indicated by a small hold to his lower back). There is overall wear to the gilding on the back as well as more greenish patina. Some of the stone inlays are missing. It is impressive in its large size.
