EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 8th century copper alloy sculpture depicts the Hindu deities Shiva, Ganesha, and Durga in a rare and captivating group composition. The central figure is Shiva, the god of destruction and regeneration, shown in his Ardhanarishvara form, with one male and one female face and four arms. To his left is his son, Ganesha, the elephant-headed god of wisdom and new beginnings, holding his signature attributes, a modak (sweet rice ball) and a goad. To Shiva's right is the goddess Durga, the mother goddess and embodiment of strength and protection, holding a trident, discus, and lotus. This intricately detailed sculpture, originating from Southeast Asia, possibly Thailand, showcases the rich artistic heritage of South and Southeast Asian art. The figures are dressed in ornate clothing and adorned with intricate jewelry, adding to their regal and divine presence. This masterpiece, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the vibrant and complex world of Hinduism and its rich mythology. The unknown creator of this sculpture remains a mystery, but their artistry continues to inspire and captivate viewers, transcending time and culture.
