Item Details
Description
19th century Indian bronze devotional sculpture of Daksha with a head of a goat and his hands in the anjali mudra. Daksha was the father of Sati, the wife of the Lord Shiva. Shiva have not been invited to a great sacrifice to be performed by Daksha. Feeling greatly humiliated on behalf of her husband, Sati went to the banquet and threw herself on the sacrificial fire. Upon hearing about it, Shiva tore a hair out of his head and threw it on the ground: from this hair rose a great warrior and hero -- Virabhadra, who ripped off the head of Daksha and hurled it into the sacrificial fire. Eventually Shiva calmed down and replaced the head with that of a goat. Daksha later became a devotee of Shiva. Relatively rare image, nice casting, pleasant devotional wear. Height 2.18 inches.
