₹310,000.00Availability: in stock
Height :35 inches width :11.5 inches depth :11 inches weight :40 kilo Hanuman Conversing One of the most appealing Hindu deities, Hanuman’s bravery, courage, and loyalty throughout the Ramayana epic are renowned. This Hanuman bronze statue is a reproduction of the original 11th century statue which is now possessed by the Metropoliton Museum in New York City. The original has been named by the experts as “Hanuman Conversing” and stands 24” tall. This reproduction is a full 35” and is a striking representation of the revered Hindu deity. Hand crafted from true Panchaloha bronze, 5 metal, this statue had 2 grams of gold and 20 grams of silver added to the molten bronze (Typically Copper, Tin and Zinc) when caste. Standing in a relaxed upright posture Hanuman is depicted in a unique pose. Here, he gestures obeisance to Rama with his raised left hand while engaging in animated discussion with his Lord, possibly about his discovery of Site in Lanka held prisoner by the powerful Ravana. Unlike his typical physical stature portraying himself as a muscular and fierce warrior, in this case he has presented himself to his lord in a modest almost feminine form as another sign of obeisance. The original sculpture was part of an ensemble with Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana at its center. It was included among an assemblage of processional icons kept by Vaishnava temples in South India for festival use. Typical of Chola-period representations, Hanuman has assumed anthropomorphic form, with only his face and tail confirming his monkey identity. The original is one of the finest bronze images of Hanuman to have survived from the Chola kingdom of south India. This reproduction embodies his noble, virtuous character with great sensitivity and to our knowledge is one of the only reproductions to ever have been produced. If it is not the only reproduction to have been produced it is certainly the finest.
