The Jarkhand State in India, is populated by over thirty-two indigenous tribes. This rare antique Basthar bronze is a beautiful and uniquely ornate tribal interpretation of the Goddess Parvati. Parvati, the consort of Lord Shiva, is considered the essence of Shakti, the divine force and energy of creation. This Basthar bronze communicates an aquiline elegance that is complimented with exquisite detail in the goddess'es dress and accouterments. Parvati is placed on a stand that mirrors and patterns her elegant dhoti. Her breasts are bare delicately covered by ornate necklaces that mirror the belly-chains around her waist. Her stance and countenance are potent and powerful. The goddess is surrounded by a nimbus that is gracefully shaped in the archetypal form of the primordial uterus. This rare and special bronze has an earthy beauty and is in very good condition. (SD)
