Manohara: Krishna, the Enchanting Lord (Stone & Wood Sculpture)
$675
Only a few gods around the globe are portrayed as beautifully (Manohara in Sanskrit) as Lord Krishna, the Hindu god, known with various perspectives: a god-child, a prankster, a model lover, a divine hero, and the Supreme Being. He has been recreated in various avatar by artisans through centuries, and they have passed on their expertise to generations who have tediously preserved his image as an attractive god with the flute ever present and a cow often nigh. In this sculpture too, the essential elements are all there, but what makes it stand out is the striking expression on his face and his posture, which redefines the beauty in a man.
Suggested Placement: The main entrance or the corner of your living room or in your courtyard
Note: In all its grandeur this can be custom made i.e. hand crafted exclusively for you either in
stone or in wood in a size of your choice to suit your needs.
