EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 15th century print depicts the revered Hindu Saint Sambandar, a prominent figure in Tamil Nadu, India, known for his poetic hymns and devotion to Shiva. The image captures the saint in a graceful and balanced posture, standing on one leg with his other leg bent at the knee and his foot placed on the ground. The intricate copper alloy figurine showcases the intricacies of 15th century Hindu art, with Sambandar adorned in traditional attire, including a headdress and anklet. The close-up perspective offers a detailed view of the textures and colors, revealing the rich heritage and history of Hinduism in India. The artist's masterful use of metalwork and attention to detail bring the figure to life, transporting us to a time when Sambandar was a celebrated poet and saint in Hindustan. This full-length statuette is a testament to the enduring legacy of Hindu literature and art, and a reminder of the profound impact of religious figures on the cultural landscape of India. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or religious artifacts, and a beautiful reminder of the balance and harmony that can be found in the human form and the natural world.
