This Indian Traditional marble carving depicts the Hindu mythological archer Arjuna from the ancient epic Mahabharata in an archer posture with a drawn bow, quiver, and crown, dating from 1870. The off-white stone relief panel has gilded accents in gold leaf on the headdress, quiver, waist sash, bracelets, belt, armbands, and bow. The figure stands with bare feet on a flat rectangular base, holding a drawn bow across his chest and wearing a moustache. A natural vein runs across the top of the marble panel. The piece measures 23.5 cm high by 15.2 cm wide by 4.7 cm deep. It stands as a decorative sculpture suited for placement on a bookshelf in a home interior setting.

FAQs

Marble relief carvings of Arjuna originate primarily from Northern India, particularly Rajasthan, depicting the archer hero from the epic Mahabharata as a symbol of focus and duty.

These sculptures are typically hand-carved from white marble blocks and embellished with gilded accents using gold leaf or natural mineral pigments.

Authentic pieces demonstrate evidence of hand-chiselling on the reverse and sides, natural softening to the carved edges, and hand-applied gilding with soft patination.

Display the sculpture on a dark timber console, mantlepiece, or inside an illuminated shelving alcove to create visual contrast against the white marble.

Dust gently using a soft, dry brush to preserve delicate gold leaf details, avoiding water, liquid polishes, or chemical cleaners on porous stone.
