Lord Ganesha Lithophane

Description

The magic of lithophany is born from the play of light with the translucent character of porcelain. By illuminating its interior, it projects warm lighting throughout the room and highlights the engraving that decorates it, producing surprising relief effects on its surface. This piece shows Lord Ganesha, the god of wisdom and knowledge. This deity, very popular in India, is represented here with all the attributes of traditional iconography, such as the gada (mace), the paasha (rope) and the broken tusk, elements whose symbolism is reflected in theavatars or traditional stories about Ganesha, well known by its numerous believers
