Pair of Monumental Stone Heads of Deva and Asura
About the Item
These monumental stone deity heads were inspired by the powerful figures that guard the ancient city of Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Khmer Empire in present-day Cambodia. To enter the temple complex, visitors must cross a bridge lined with 54 gods (devas) and 54 demons (asuras), representing the balance of dueling forces at the root of all life.
Recently sculpted by traditional artists in Cambodia, the stone statues depict one deva and one asura, and look incredible flanking an entry or lining a room. Set on custom plinths, the larger-than-life protectors command their surroundings with awe-inspiring scale and captivating beauty.
