Sculpture of small size, made in bronze, representing Sarasvati sitting, Goddess of Wisdom, playing a tambourine. Sarasvati is a Goddess of Hindu origin. This Goddess is also worshiped throughout Central Asia, as in Myanmar (formerly Burma) or in parts of Thailand (ancient Siam), and even in remote areas such as Bali or Japan. It is made in Central Asia, probably between Myanmar (formerly Burma) and Thailand (formerly Siam), since, if it were from India, it would be playing a Vina. The sculpture is located at the beginning of the First Half of the twentieth century, although it could be earlier, since Sarasvati sculptures are being made for a long time and to this day, although with different techniques and aesthetics. It is solid, and in addition to a single piece with the exception of the musical instrument, so, due to its structure, it is most likely made by means of a single use mold, since, due to the shapes of the sculpture, they force to break the mold to be able to unmold. The artistic quality of the sculpture is good, highlighting its proportions and the sensation of calm and calm transmitted by its contemplation. The whole figure is treated with a beautiful greenish patina, having been left visible in the areas of the body, while the clothes are gold, with what could be gold leaf. The treatment of termination and auctions are regular, and has been limited to eliminating the drinking troughs, treating the face and making some specific touches, presenting flaws in your foundry that have not been treated.
There are many figures of Sarasvati playing a tambourine, in the same position. The sculptures that are found are usually very poorly preserved. Very interesting as a collector"s item and decorative element. Spectacular in an illuminated niche.
