Crafted during the 19th century, this sculpture is a poignant representation of the eternal struggle between good and evil, embodying the theme of divine intervention in human affairs. The intricate details and vivid colors reflect the folk art traditions of India, where such pieces were often crafted to narrate epic tales from texts like the Mahabharata and the Bhagavata Purana.

Standing at a height of 18.8 cm and measuring 23 cm wide, this statue is not just a decorative item but also a cultural artifact that captures a significant narrative in Indian history.
