EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Head of Bhairava, a terrifying manifestation of God Shiva from the Malla period in Nepal during the 16th and 17th centuries. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this gilt copper sculpture, which has been worked in repoussé technique with pigments. The gilded surface adds a touch of opulence to this religious artifact. Bhairava is associated with annihilation and represents one of the most fearsome forms of Lord Shiva in Hinduism. His wrathful expression, depicted on this Nepalese artwork, captures his divine power and intensity. The golden hue further enhances his godly presence. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of Asia gallery, this ancient masterpiece offers a glimpse into Nepal's rich cultural heritage and religious traditions. Despite its age, the sculpture's colors have remained vibrant over time, showcasing its enduring beauty. The artist behind this extraordinary piece remains unknown but their skill is undeniable. This photograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail that went into creating such an awe-inspiring representation of Bhairava’s face. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of the artistic brilliance but also the spiritual significance it holds within Hinduism.
