Description
This exquisite statuette stands at a modest 6.5 cm (2.56 inches) in height, 3 cm (1.18 inches) in width, and 1.5 cm (0.59 inches) in depth, making it a compact piece of historical art. Crafted from either bronze or brass, this ancient statuette depicts a four-armed votive figure, a common representation in Hindu iconography, suggesting its origin in the Khmer culture of Southeast Asia, specifically from the 15th to the 17th century. The idol's dynamic posture, with its arms raised and bent in an elegant and ritualistic gesture, is indicative of divine action or dance, underscoring the importance of performance in religious ceremonies. This piece is not just an artefact; it is a tangible connection to the spiritual life of the Khmer people.
