Magnificent four armed torso, Khmer



This extraordinary piece (probably Vishnu) is of a scale that is normally reserved for museums.

The shoulder area has been professionally repaired from damage, which probably occurred through the piece falling or having the head removed.

It features a wonderful patina and spectacular patterns in the stone.
This is a piece which accurately depicts the Khmer ideal of the perfect male form – muscular, broad shouldered and with a generous and shapely girth – the physique of a god. Mounted on a museum quality stand.

Width : 69 cm
Height (without stand) : 107 cm
Height (with stand) : 124 cm
Thickness : 36 cm

Magnificent Hevajara, Khmer



A large
and exciting Hevajara, with 16 arms and nine heads.

In Tantric Buddhism, Hevajara has the rank of a Buddha and is traditionally depicted dancing over a demon.

The provenance of this piece is unknown, but the style is Bayon (1177 – 1237). It would appear to be a major reconstruction of extraordinary quality. An authentic piece of such a size and condition with provenance would be priceless.

Wonderful detail, deep carving - one piece of stone carved with tremendous skill and attention to form. Classical depiction of Vishnu and a giant Naga with numerous deities.

Width: 143 cm Height (without stand): 95 cm Height (with stand): 125 cm Thickness: 29 cm. Weight: estimate 150 Kg.

Large Visnuite Monument, Khmer

An extremely rare and extraordinary example of the finest, most delicate and precise stone work possible. The expression “awe inspiring” is truly an appropriate term for this piece. It features hundreds of tiny Vishnu figures delicately carved on all four sides.
It is mounted on a tall museum quality bronze gun metal finished stand.

The provenance of th piece is not known, although the style is thought to be Bayon (1177-1237). As it would be a monument of major religious significance, it is unlikely that this piece is an authentic ancient artifact. It was probably the result of a collaboration of a village of Cambodian restoration carvers who happened upon a piece of magnificent stone and decided to build the most exotic and detailed type of Khmer artistry their skills would permit. This piece was a project that probably took years to complete.

The age of this piece is unknown.



Width : 32 cm
