Dancing Shiva or Nataraj is one of the most common representations of Lord Shiva. Such a representation is common in the Chola style bronze statues.
Here is a very rare and unique bronze sculpture of Nataraj in the Tibetan style. The features on his divine face with meditative eyes and high arched brows are unmistakenly Tibetan. The ten hands, each holding either a weapon or a bell or simply folded in a ‘mudra’ or position talks of the Indian influence.
The decorative arch around him is truly a piece of good artistry. The overall effect of this beautiful Tibetan Shiva is rather riveting. (20”)
