Description |
For thousands of years, Indian artists have sought to create sculpture that portrays a higher spiritual truth. The land of India itself is dotted with temples and shrines, some elaborate, others simple, whose art celebrates the life of the spirit. Sculpted in the robust medieval style, this statue depicts a figure in an attitude of prayer and meditation. Calm and serene, she appears to focus on some inner vision. In her presence, one cannot help but feel peaceful as well.
