Flying Gandharva, Vishwamitra ka Tila (Pehowa)

Description

In Hindu mythology, Gandharvas are celestial beings associated with music and beauty. Typically depicted as male figures, they exude grace and serve as divine musicians and attendants to the gods. In this stone relief, a flying Gandharva, adorned with intricate jewelry, captivates with divine poise. Both legs elegantly folded, they defy gravity, their serene gaze fixed upon their outstretched hand and feet, evoking introspection. With one hand extended, the sculpture radiates celestial beauty, inviting contemplation of the mysteries of the celestial realm, where Gandharvas and their female counterparts, reside as embodiments of divine harmony.
