EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Statue of Shiva, a magnificent bronze masterpiece created by the Thai School during the 14th century. Housed in the prestigious National Museum in Bangkok, Thailand, this statue is part of a collection of Hindu sculptures that were meticulously preserved at the Brahman Temple before finding their permanent home here. Belonging to the Sukhothai era, this depiction of Shiva represents his significance as a Hindu deity and his revered status as the Supreme God within Shaivism. While different branches of Hinduism may vary in their interpretations, Shiva remains one of the five primary forms of God in many traditions. Photographed by eLuca Tettoni with great attention to detail, this image captures not only the beauty and craftsmanship but also reflects upon South East Asian culture and spirituality. The intricate sculptural details highlight Siamese artistry and evoke a sense of awe-inspiring divinity. As we delve into this photograph's rich narrative, it becomes evident that it serves as an invaluable artifact for both art enthusiasts and those interested in exploring Hinduism. Bridgeman Images has skillfully brought forth this visual treasure from Fine Art Finder without any commercial intent but rather with an aim to appreciate its historical significance and cultural heritage.
