EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning pair of architectural brackets, dating back to the 17th century, showcase the intricate and exquisite craftsmanship of the yali or vyala, rampant leonine creatures native to South East Asian art and mythology. Originating from the temples of Madurai in Tamil Nadu, India, these brackets were once part of a processional mandapa, or temple porch. Carved from ivory with traces of paint, these brackets depict the yali in its full glory, with open mouths revealing sharp, curved teeth, and expressive, smiling faces. The yali is a common heraldic motif in Hindu and Jain art, symbolizing power, strength, and protection. The intricate carving on these brackets reveals the artist's mastery of the medium, with each detail meticulously crafted by hand. The yali's mane is adorned with intricate patterns, and its body is covered in delicate, flowing lines. The creatures' muscular forms and dynamic poses add a sense of energy and movement to the otherwise static architectural elements. These brackets are a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India and South East Asia, and serve as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the region's cultural history. Today, they are proudly displayed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where they continue to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
