Antique Phnom Da Style Khmer Vishnu Torso - Protector & Preserver - 98cm/39" Measures – (Height) 98cm/39”An antique Khmer Vishnu in the pre-Angkorian Phnom Da style. This majestic yet benign image of Vishnu shows the four armed (chaturbhuja) from of the God, whose hands usually carry a globe, a disk, a conch and a mace as distinguishing attributes. Here only the disk (or chakra) and conch partially remain, supported by the surviving half of an original halo, aureole or arch - his circle of light symbolising his divinity. The figure demonstrates the tribhanga posture typical of the Phnom Da style, along with a naturalistic representation of musculature, delicately carved fingers and refined facial features of that style. The sampot, the Cambodian garment in which a length of cloth is wound around the hips and tucked in at the waist, a pre-cursor to the styles that would become increasingly elaborate in Khmer morphology. A majestic and serene museum quality piece. The perfect traditional in appearance Vishnu to bring serenity and timeless style to you home, office or sacred space.
