- This masterpiece bronze sculpture depicts three Tirthankaras, known as a Tri-Tirthankara image
- It is a bronze masterpiece!
- Bangladeshi bronze statues are extremely rare. Lotus Sculpture is the only company who carries them. Soon, we fear, there will be no more Hindu bronze artists in Muslim Bangadesh so this is an opportunity to have a piece of history
- The Tri-Tirthankara statue is a one of a kind, lost wax method, bronze statue. Only one of these statues is ever made
This piece is the embodiment of all that was beautiful about the work of the artists of the Pala period. It is a stunning work of balance and proportion. There is so much detail and beauty in the piece that you find your eye wandering over the piece taking in all the beautiful details it has to offer. A beautiful work of Pala art!
Write up on the original sculpture taken from the National Museum, New Delhi: The bronze metal sculpture is of a Tirthankara, a Jain savior, who sits in the center with two more Tirthankaras standing in meditation on either side of the main figure, thus making a group of three Tirthankaras, known as a Tri-Tirthankara image. On two ends of the pedestal are figures of a Yaksha and a Yakshi. The central Tirthankara sits on an embroidered cushion placed on a simhasana (lion throne) whose centre has the dharmachakra, or the wheel of law, flanked by two deer. The lion throne, the textile cover or carpet on it and the cushion all have beautiful designs. On top of the pedestal, below the Yakshi and Yaksha, are eight heads which symbolize the eight planets. This beautiful composition dates from circa 650 AD. and is typical of the Western School from the seventh century onwards whose examples have been discovered in Gujarat and Rajasthan.
