EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of the Prathara dynasty in 10th century India. The image depicts Harihara, a combined deity embodying both Shiva and Vishnu, gracefully dancing in the alidha pose. Measuring 55x31 cm, this stone sculpture is housed in the prestigious National Museum of India in New Delhi. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship evident in this piece are truly awe-inspiring. Every curve and contour of Harihara's body is meticulously carved, capturing his divine essence with remarkable precision. The artist from the Indian School has skillfully merged the characteristics of both Shiva and Vishnu into one harmonious form, symbolizing their inseparable connection. Harihara's dance exudes an aura of celestial energy as he effortlessly balances on one leg while striking a dynamic pose. His multiple arms hold various attributes associated with each deity - representing creation, destruction, preservation, and liberation. This fusion of deities represents the unity between two major sects within Hinduism. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back to ancient times when devotion to gods was expressed through artistry beyond compare. This print serves as a testament to India's rich cultural heritage and its profound spiritual traditions that continue to inspire generations worldwide.
