Surya Rutten

Envoyé avec certificat

Bas-relief de la déesse Lakshmi
Hauteur : 29,5 cm x 18 cm x 9 cm
Matériau : Bois sculpté
Origine : Inde du Sud (probablement Tamil Nadu ou Karnataka), fin XVIIIe – XIXe siècle
Technique : Sculpture en haut-relief

Bloc architectural sculpté représentant Lakshmi, déesse hindoue de la richesse, de la prospérité et de l’abondance. Elle est figurée assise en padmāsana (posture du lotus), les jambes croisées, les bras multiples tenant des lotus stylisés, attributs caractéristiques de son iconographie. Le visage est serein, surmonté d'une coiffe élaborée, et le corps richement orné de bijoux et d’un vêtement à motifs en relief.
Ce type de sculpture était souvent intégré aux niches murales ou aux piliers des temples, servant à invoquer la bénédiction de la divinité sur les fidèles ou les lieux de culte.

État de conservation :
Usures et patine naturelle du bois. Fissures, cassures et petite restauration visibles à la base sur les flancs. Manques mineurs compatibles avec l’âge et l’usage rituel.

Cette représentation de Lakshmi illustre les pratiques votives de l’Inde du Sud et la transmission des codes iconographiques traditionnels par les artisans sthapatis. Elle incarne à la fois la dévotion populaire et l’excellence de la sculpture religieuse boisée.
