EDITORS COMMENTS
This album cover, created between approximately 1875 and 1900, showcases the Hindu deity Shiva in his destructive form as Tripurantaka, the Destroyer of the Three Cities of the Demons. The intricately carved sandalwood panel, adorned with silver fittings, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India during the nineteenth century. The central figure of Shiva is depicted with multiple arms, each holding a weapon, ready to unleash his divine destruction. His third eye is open, symbolizing his omniscience, and his serene expression contrasts the intense energy emanating from the scene. The demons, represented as fearsome creatures, are shown being consumed by the flames of Shiva's cosmic dance, known as the Tandava. The intricate carving on this handcrafted artifact reveals the skill and dedication of the artist, N. Sivappa, who meticulously brought this powerful mythological story to life. The use of sandalwood, a prized material in Indian art, adds to the elegance and sophistication of the piece. This album cover is an important representation of the Hindu religion and the artistic traditions of South Asia during the nineteenth century. It is now part of the extensive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
