About this piece
Hands raised, one foot forward, and a crown that goes up and up.
This standing Lakshmi in mudra pose was cast in bronze in India and is dated in the record to the 17th century or earlier. Lakshmi is commonly associated with prosperity and good fortune, and small bronzes were often kept in household shrines. The goddess stands on a stepped base, wearing a tall conical crown and heavy jewelry, with raised hands in gesture. The face is slightly worn, as is the whole figure, and the bronze has turned a deep brown with lighter highlights at the edges.
About 4 inches tall. Small, steady, and perfectly at home on a bookshelf.
