In the
Vidhyshwara Samhita of Shiva Purana,
the Vrishabh or bull of Shiva, popularly revered as “Nandi” is described as the
manifestation of Dharma, who guards the Maheshwara Loka.
Satya
(truth), Shauch (purity), Ahimsa (non-violence), and Daya (mercy) are the four
legs of Nandi. Kshama (forgiveness) and Aastikta (faith) are his eyes and it is
on this divine bull that Shiva is mounted eternally.
A pristine
white marble and the faultless skills of Indian artists make for the perfect
representation of Nandi’s persona.
Nandi takes a
relaxed yet active stance, one leg folded under, always rooted in the sacred
land of Shiva, and the other raised, as if about to arise any moment.
His animated
gaze and slightly upraised head, create a dynamism and an aura of power.
Nandi is
embellished with rows of bells around the neck and back which are sculpted in
the marble itself, however, the most striking feature of this statue is the
inlay work.
Traditionally
known as Pacchikari, marble inlay involves stone pieces, cut finely and
inserted in the marble with such finesse that they appear to be one continuous
design as if painted with the perfection of a miniature artist.
The technique
and ornamentation of this marble sculpture are exceptional, however, it is the
subject- the unwavering and devoted Nandi that makes this artwork heavenly.
