Antique Khmer Style Koh Ker Stone Brahma Head - Hindu God Creation - 42cm/17"
Measurements H42cm (17")
An antique Khmer style freestanding Brahma head in the Cambodian Koh Ker style. Brahma is the Hindu God of Creation and one of the Trimurti, the others being Vishnu and Shiva.
The power emanating from this compelling Brahma image characterises Koh Ker style. As is typical with this style the Brahma has a soft face and is adorned with an elaborate tiara or mukuta. A tradition that continued to develop in Cambodia from the 10th century to the post-Angkor period.
Unusually, the head is free standing and as such does not require a wood mount.
The carving is beautiful as you can see in the fine details of the face and hands. Each detail is rendered perfectly. Traditional in appearance, the sculpture will bring serenity and timeless style to your home, office or sacred space.
