EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-carved lower torso of a Nagini, an ancient mythical serpent-like creature from Hindu and Buddhist mythology, dates back to the 8th to 10th centuries. The sculpture, originating from Sri Lanka, is made of granite and displays intricate details and vibrant colors, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the time. Naginis are believed to be the guardians of treasures and are often depicted as beautiful, semi-human females with the lower body of a serpent. This stunning statuette, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of South Asia during this period. The intricate carving on the surface of the sculpture reveals the delicate curves and patterns of the Nagini's body, with each detail meticulously crafted by the unknown artist. The Nagini's serene expression and graceful posture convey a sense of tranquility and power, making this sculpture a captivating work of art that continues to intrigue and inspire viewers. The exact origin and provenance of this sculpture remain unknown, adding to its mystique and historical significance.
