A Sarasvati sculpture of unequalled beauty and life. Under a canopy of luxuriant green stands the wife of Brahma. She is little more than a wisp, the fairest of the Hindu Devi pantheon. Her long, slender limbs - not unlike the shape of the Indian classical musical instrument She holds in Her hands - are clad in silk of the same colour.
The gossamer beauty of Sarasvati has been captured perfectly in this wood-carved iconography. It draws influence from the temple wall architecture of South India. As such, the deeply expressive eyes, the tall crown above Her jewel-black hair, and Her attire and adornment are all faithful to tradition in terms of style.
The canopy of green above Sarasvati’s crowned head is interspersed with the buds of flowers the colour of fire. These add a pop of colour to the predominantly pastel palette. On the lotus pedestal, underneath a fair foot of the Devi, is Her vahana, the colourfully plumaged peacock.
