Description
A FINE BRONZE FIGURE OF DURGA
India, 16th - 17th century. Cast as the four-armed Durga in a striding pose on a throne, slaying the buffalo demon with her trident held in her principal right hand, holding a javelin and chakra in her other hands, her lion mount besides her biting the buffalo.

Condition: Good condition with expected wear and casting irregularities as well as small nicks and dents here and there. Fine patina with a smooth feel overall.
Provenance: Formerly in the Collection of the Krook Family. Sten Krook (1920-2009) and his mother Xenia Krook (1892-1988) shared a common interest in travelling and collecting Asian bronze figures. They conducted several journeys together to China, India, Nepal, Hong Kong and Thailand, during the 1930 till the 1980's. They had a broad collection ranging from medieval sculptures up until late 19th century from countries such as China, Tibet, Nepal, India and Japan. Many of them were sold at auction in Stockholm in 2014.
