Description

This stunning sandstone statue from the 19th century depicts Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of knowledge and music, alongside her two sons, Ganesha and Kartikeya. Standing at 88.5 cm tall with an intricate design, the statue showcases exceptional craftsmanship characteristic of artisans from Calcutta, a city renowned for its rich artistic heritage.

The statue features Saraswati in a poised stance, representing wisdom and learning, while Ganesha, often worshipped as the remover of obstacles, and Kartikeya, the god of war, are depicted alongside her, highlighting their familial ties and the support system in Hindu mythology. The two attendants flanking the central figure add depth to the composition, emphasizing the revered status of Saraswati.

Crafted from sandstone, the statue not only reflects the artistic traditions of India but also serves as a testament to the country’s diverse spiritual narrative. India, with its profound historical tapestry, has long been a cradle for religious and artistic expressions, making this statue a valuable piece of cultural heritage.

Weighing 27.75 kg, this sculpture not only serves as a decorative piece but also as a symbol of the timeless reverence for wisdom and creativity within Hindu culture, making it a meaningful addition to any collection or sacred space.
