Traditional Wooden Statue From Western India, Late 1800s
Traditional wooden statue from Western India, late 1800s
The statue served as a decorative element in a palace or nobleman’s residence.
The black markings on the hands and feet may represent a protective ritual, while the statue was carved from a single block of hardwood, most likely teak.
The voluminous hairstyle, very typical of India, suggests a Western Indian origin, while the disc-shaped earrings and the pose are characteristic of the aristocratic culture of the period.
Dimensions: H = 66 cm – W = 55 cm – D = 63 cm
