Surya Rutten

An Indian patinated bronze sculpture of Shiva (possibly in his manifestation of the demon Virabhadra) standing on a stepped square base in front of a 'mandorla', 18th-19th century, 9.5 cm. high, 6 cm. wide and 2.7 cm. deep.

The eight-armed Hindu god Shiva (both creator and destroyer of the present universe, lord of the three worlds, prince of ascites and protector of the animal world) wearing conical headgear, his forehead with 'urna', holding among other a club ('Gada'), hooded by the cobra ('Naga'), the 'mandorla' consisting of presumably peacock feathers and crowned with a 'taoti' mask, in good condition.
