Description

The deity is shown in his iconic tribhanga posture, playing the flute with both hands raised gracefully, wearing detailed ornaments and a conical headdress. His body exudes rhythmic energy and divine charm, standing firmly on a shaped pedestal with a support behind his raised leg, the facial features are finely modelled with a gentle smile and serene gaze.
