EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th century figurine depicts Krishna, the beloved deity of Hinduism, known for his mischievous antics as a child, including stealing butter from his mother Yashoda. The small-scale copper alloy sculpture, originating from South East Asia or India, showcases Krishna in a playful pose, crawling on all fours and gesturing with one hand as if to offer or take the butter. The intricate details of the sculpture reveal the masterful craftsmanship of the unknown artist, with the deity's muscular form and expressive features bringing the mythological tale to life. The figurine, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Asian continent and the enduring influence of Hinduism. The copper alloy material adds an element of durability and value to the piece, making it a valuable addition to the museum's collection. The sixteenth century was a period of great artistic innovation in South Asia, and this figurine is a prime example of the intricate and detailed sculptures produced during this time. The exact location of its origin remains unknown, but it is believed to have been created in either India or Southeast Asia, reflecting the diverse cultural influences that shaped the region during this period. This Krishna figurine is a reminder of the vibrant artistic traditions of the past and the enduring power of mythology to inspire and captivate audiences across generations and continents.
