Title: Rare Antique Bronze Standing Figure of a Multi-armed Female Deity. Khmer 'Prei Khmeng' Style.
Overview:  A superb  Khmer Figure of a Female Deity, probably that of 'Uma', beautifully executed in traditional 'Prei Khmeng' style of the Khmer Angkor Wat Era, elegantly modeled with intricate detail, measuring 16.0 inches (40.64cm).
Description She stands in 'Samabhanga' with her bare feet firmly planted on a small square plinth, with her arms raised holding attributes in each hand, while displaying the gesture of instruction, the 'Vitarka' mudra. The figure displays typical indian movement of the torso with supple modeling, standing with a sway to the right hip, or the 'tribhanga' posture. She is  gracefully poised with a slender profile, and a well-defined naked upper body, partially covered in a long stylized sarong, worn high on the hips, with the navel visible, secured by a decorative belt with central rosette, tied at the front in a loop, and complimented by an ornate central panel draped down and finished in a decorative design to the garments hem.   XXX The face appears indigenous to Khmer with incised almond-shaped eyes, connected eyebrows, broad nose, wide mouth, and elongated pierced earlobes.        Her long hair with its cluster of looped-braids is piled into a coiffure known as a 'jatamukuta' in which the complex binding and long looping of the braids gives the appearance of richness, of which is typical of Prei Khmeng (635-700) style sculptures, as are her lithe, slightly muscled figure, youthful face, and serene interspective gaze.Remarks:The bronze figure is an early surviving example of statuary recovered from northern Cambodia. The piece reflects characteristics linked to the Prei Khmeng period, and demonstrates the regional style of an era who's art and culture was once under the rule of the Khmer Empire for several centuries, and is distinguished here by the exquisite craftsmanship and charming naturalism in which the figure possesses. The bronze remains in solid condition with some minor casting flaws, pitting, and minor surface degradation as would be expected given the conditions in which it was maintained.
