Bhairava (the fearsome or whose cry causes fear) is a form of the Hindu god Shiva, which has been included in the Nepalese culture, as a powerful guardian deity. In temples and houses of the Newari Hindu community, Bhairava statues and masks, carrying the valiant aura of the Lord are placed, to attain the shield of Bhairava. This elaborately sculpted brass Bhairava mask from Nepal is an artistic depiction of the god, who is adorned with jewelry of Nepal while retaining his features as described in traditional Hindu texts.

 

Bhairava has three wide eyes, with his two eyes distinctively formed like fishes, with the Tripunda on his forehead, and teeth protruding from his gaping mouth, which is outlined by his stylized mustache. He wears an ornate crown with skull embellishment, amplified by the aureole around him, which has spears emerging from it. The tresses of Bhairava curl rather beautifully around his face, running parallel to a row of skulls on his aureole. On each side of the mask are images of Ganesha, the son of Shiva.
