Features

• Crafted with Madhuchista Vidhana, the lost-wax technique, this Panchaloha Bronze from Swamimalai represents the tortoise, an ancient emblem of stability and endurance, symbolising the cosmic manifestation and the framework of the universe. As per Hindu mythology, Lord Vishnu’s avatar, Kurma, took the form of a tortoise to support Mount Mandara during the churning of the ocean (Samudra Manthan). Lakshmi, the goddess of success and prosperity is born during the churning of the ocean. A symbol of stability and endurance, Kurma bridges the terrestrial and celestial realms, exemplifying the cosmic balance and the enduring nature of spiritual truths. This mesmerising artwork stands as a testament to timeless tales, inviting reverence and contemplation in the eternal dance of creation.
