A BRONZE FIGURE OF PARVATI, India, 19th century

Depicted in a "royal posture," with one hand resting on her right leg and the other holding a lotus flower. The figure is sculpted in the classic naturalistic style of Southern Indian statues. The goddess’s face displays a pleasant smile, her bare torso adorned with rich jewelry, and her lower garment drapes elegantly over her hips and legs with a refined pleating.

Provenance: from the Ullman collection, Italy.
