  • Antique Java Style Majapahit Standing Bronze Vishnu Statue - Protector & Preserver - 29cm/11"

    Measurements - Height 28.5cm/11"

    An antique Java Style standing bronze Vishnu sculpture in the 13th century Majapahit style. Vishnu is both world protector and preserver, restorer of moral order - he is all-powerful and all-pervasive by nature.

    The Vishnu is stood samabhanga on a raised, round pedestal. The lowered right hand makes the boon bestowing gesture (varada mudra). His left hand holds his gada or mace symbolising his mental and physical strength.

    He wears a richly bejewelled dohti and upavita. His face has a downcast gaze. Upon his head he wears a decorative Javanese style tiara in front of his Kirita-Makuta or tall conical crown. This symbolises control over Positive and Negative attitudes.

    On his forehead he has a third eye or urna. He has an aquiline nose and elongated earlobes with large ear rings.

    The sculpture has a wonderful brown patina.
