Antique Indian Gujarat Hand Carved Temple Carving Statue Depicting a Woman
Located in Yonkers, NY
An antique Indian early 20th century hand carved architectural temple carving from Gujarat, depicting a smiling woman. Originating from Gujarat, India, this antique early 20th-century hand-carved architectural temple carving is a captivating depiction of a smiling woman. This exquisite sculpture captures the essence of traditional Indian artistry, with the woman carved in a frontal position while her legs are delicately portrayed in profile. Her serene expression, enhanced by a slight tilt of her head, radiates a sense of calm and contentment. The intricate details of her headdress, attire, and jewelry highlight the craftsmanship and cultural richness of the region.
The woman's features are beautifully rendered, showcasing a blend of grace and elegance. The carving, with its weathered appearance, speaks to its historical significance and journey through time.
