19th Century Hindu Nandi Temple Guardian, Architectural Ornament
Located in Forney, TX
A monumental Hindu Nandi temple gate-guardian architectural ornament, born in India, dating to the 19th century, hand carved and painted, richly detailed, polychrome decorated, the wooden sculpture depicting Nandi, a sacred bull, gatekeeper, and vahana religious deity figure.
Provenance:
Acquired from The Neiman Marcus Corporate Art Collection. Details below.
Dimensions: (approx)
49.5" x 43" x 12"
An important religious folk art work, the Nandi is of carved wood and gessoed cloth, then hand-painted. In Hindu religion, Nandi is the mythical mount of Shiva. The four legs represent truth, righteousness, peace and love.
More than a means of conveyance, Nandi is considered Shiva's constant companion on all his travels, so much so that in any temple dedicated to Shiva, there is a sculpture of Nandi. This symbol is a deity in its own right, and in India there are temples dedicated exclusively to Nandi.
In Hindu symbolism, the bull represents both strength and ignorance. The white or light color of the bull symbolizes purity and justice. Symbolically, the seated Nandi towards sanctum in Shiva temples, represents an individual jiva (soul) and the message that the jiva should always be focused on the Parameshwara. From the yogic perspective, Nandi is the mind dedicated to Shiva, the absolute. In other words, to understand and absorb light, the experience, and the wisdom is Nandi, which is the guru within. The fact that Shiva uses it as a mount symbolizes how this divine figure removes ignorance while instilling strength and wisdom.
A superb example, the life size work is in great overall shape, and presents wonderfully, having beautifully aged patina over the whole, highly desirable original, worn, rustic, naturally distressed, chippy paint, craquelure finish, that's delicate, and enhances the artistic antique character and rich historic depth.
Detailed Condition Report:
Fragile / delicate by design. Loss to one ear, age related checking and separation to carvings, fabric to hind quarters is released and tattered with minor loss, rubbing to paint throughout with wear indicative of age and use; later grey painted mounting blocks are attached to back and hooves.
White glove in-home shipping/delivery available.
Pickup available near Dallas, Texas
Additional Provenance:
Property from the Neiman Marcus Collection. Acquired from Heritage Auction, Design District Gallery, Dallas, Texas.
From The Dallas Morning Newspaper; April 12th, 2021

Indian Gujarat Hand Carved Temple Carving Statue Depicting a Woman and a Feline
Located in Yonkers, NY
An Indian early 20th century hand carved architectural temple carving from Gujarat, depicting a woman and a feline. Crafted in the Western portion of India in the state of Gujarat, this exquisite early 20th-century hand-carved temple sculpture captivates with its depiction of a woman and her feline companion. The woman, adorned with a delicate headdress and wearing intricate clothes and jewelry, stands in a frontal position, her head slightly tilted to the side. She holds a small musical instrument, suggesting a scene of serene artistry and cultural richness. Accompanying her is a stylized feline, adding an element of mystique and charm to the piece.
The sculpture's nicely weathered appearance, along with traces of polychrome, enhances its historical authenticity and rustic beauty. The proportions are balanced and pleasing, creating a harmonious composition that draws the viewer's eye. Unfinished in the back, this temple carving is meant to be displayed against a wall, where it can become a focal point of admiration.
Perfect for enlivening any wall, this early 20th-century Indian temple carving...
