Plaque with Local Deity Ghantakarna and Spouse, c. 1600 - A Glimpse into Nepal's Rich Religious Heritage
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the 17th century - the "Plaque with Local Deity Ghantakarna and Spouse". Created by an unknown artist, this gilt bronze relief sculpture hails from Nepal, offering us a glimpse into the country's rich cultural tapestry. The plaque depicts the powerful Hindu deity Ghantakarna alongside his divine spouse. Adorned in resplendent gold gilding, their multi-armed forms exude strength and protection. The male figure gestures with his hands in intricate mudras, symbolizing auspicious blessings for those who seek refuge in him. Meanwhile, the female deity stands gracefully beside him, her peacock feather crown adding to her regal presence. Every detail on this artwork is meticulously crafted - from the feathers of the majestic peacocks to the serpents coiled around their bodies. The symbolism behind each element reflects deep-rooted religious beliefs prevalent in Nepalese culture. As we admire this masterpiece at the Art Institute of Chicago's Asian Arts gallery, we are transported to a world where gods and goddesses protect their devotees against evil forces. This plaque not only serves as an exquisite example of artistic skill but also represents devotion and spirituality that have shaped Nepal's identity over centuries. Let us marvel at this extraordinary artifact that embodies both
