Description
Here Lord Shiva is depicted in his famous Nataraja dancing form. The spectacular brass figure of the Nataraj Shiva is given a refine and minute treatment. As Nataraja, Lord Shiva, one of the Trinity Gods in Hinduism, represents the rhythmic motion of life. Nataraj is a symbolic synthesis of the most important aspects of Hinduism, and the summary of the central tenets of this Vedic religion. The ‘Nataraj’ means ‘King of Dancers’ is "clearest image of the activity of God which any art or religion can boast of. A more fluid and energetic representation of a moving figure than the dancing figure of Shiva can scarcely be found anywhere." In a unified and dynamic composition expressing the rhythm and harmony of life, Nataraj is shown with four hands represent the four cardinal directions. He is dancing, with his left foot elegantly raised and the right foot on a prostrate figure. The upper left hand holds a flame, the lower left hand points down to the dwarf, who is shown holding a cobra. The upper right hand holds an hourglass drum that stands for the male-female vital principle, the lower shows the gesture of assertion. Snakes that stand for egotism are seen uncoiling from his arms, legs, and hair, which is braided and bejewelled. His matted locks are whirling as he dances within an arch of flames representing the endless cycle of birth and death. On his head is a skull, symbolic of his conquest over death. The entire figure is painted red.
