This enormously large brass statue represents Lord Shiva in a dance mode usually identified as the ’Ananda-tandava’, and the form of Shiva engaged in it, as Nataraja. The elegantly conceived image of Lord Shiva, passionately engaged in dance with his right leg placed on the figure of Apasmarapurusha, and left, turned to the right and shot into space, has been installed in a fire-arch rising from a lotus pedestal and is topped by a Kirti-mukha motif symbolic of good and auspiciousness.
