"Shiva, Lord of the Dancers" c. 12th century bronze |
|
from Tamil Nadu, India - Rijks Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands. |
|
|
|
Note: The timeless dance of life, creation and destruction. |
|
Shiva, dancing in a ring of fire - with one hand he beats the |
|
rhythm of creation on a drum and with the other hand, he destroys. |
The dwarf underfoot represents human ignorance trampled. |
