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...
