Bronze statue of Shiva, one of the three main gods of Hinduism. This sculpture is cast using the lost wax method, cire perdue. This is a very detailed image including the crescent moon ( chandra ) just below the headdress and the "eyes" on the center of the head and on the palms. In one of his right hands he holds the drum ( damaru ) and in one of his left hands he holds the hallucinogenic plant Datura. While dancing, he tramples on ignorance (in the form of a dwarf).
