EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 11th-12th century brass figurine depicts the Hindu deity Vishnu, one of the primary gods in Hinduism. The god is shown in his full-length form, with four arms, each holding a symbolic object. In his main right hand, he holds the conch shell, a symbol of creation and the beginning of the universe. In his upper left hand, he holds the discus, a weapon that represents the preservation of the universe. In his lower left hand, he holds a lotus flower, which symbolizes purity and creation. In his lower right hand, he holds a mace, a weapon used to destroy evil. Vishnu is often depicted with the blue skin color, which represents his role as the preserver of the universe. He is also shown here with an elegant, slender build and a serene expression on his face, which conveys his peaceful and compassionate nature. The figurine is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of South Asia during the 11th and 12th centuries. It is believed to have originated from either India or Southeast Asia, as Hinduism spread throughout the region during this time. The intricate details of the figurine, such as the delicate folds of Vishnu's clothing and the intricate patterns on his crown, demonstrate the advanced metalworking techniques of the time. This figurine is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is displayed as an important example of Hindu art and the artistic traditions of South Asia. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural history of the region and the enduring influence of Hinduism on the world.
