This most artistically crafted: cast, plated and anodized, brass-statue, in every likeliness an image for a royal or a rich man’s domestic shrine, exceptionally ornate as are Tibetan and Nepalese images, an example of perfect craftsmanship and endowed with rare beauty, represents Lord Ganesh in his Ekadanta manifestation. He has been represented as seated on a two-tiered ‘chowki’, the rising wall engraved with tiny forms of Ganesh himself, in ‘utkut akasana’, a sitting posture with both legs turned angularly, the feet facing each other in the body’s centre.
