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.
