Iron Man Bleeding Edge

V&A text: This is an image of Nandi, the sacred bull-calf. In Sanskrit Nandi means ‘joyfulness’ or ‘blissfulness’ and refers to the emotions experienced by a devotee in the presence of Lord Shiva. Temples dedicated to Shiva, the Hindu lord of creation and destruction, are found throughout the Indian subcontinent. An essential element in any Shiva temple is the image of Nandi. It occupies an axial position, focusing the attention of the faithful from the outer halls of the temple directly into its spiritual heart, the ‘garbhagrha’ (‘womb chamber’).
Late 16th century-early 17th century (made).

114 images, sony A600 gallery lighting, reality capture 1.1. Poorly captured ears, under foreleg and very shiny stone. Quite a reasonable model given that....

From [artsmia.org](www.artsmia.org):

*'The Hindu god Shiva appears in several incarnations. Here, Shiva appears as Nataraja, or Lord of the Dance. He raises his left foot in a graceful dance pose. In his upper right hand, Nataraja holds a drum, the sound of which manifests creation. The flame that he holds in his upper left hand symbolizes destruction. Together, they symbolize the creation and destruction of the cosmic universe. The posture of the icon’s lower left and right palms signifies protection. The foot that rests on the demon’s back symbolizes the 
elimination of ignorance, while the raised left foot signifies salvation...'*

Shiva Nataraja (Lord of Dance)
2013

Artist: Sri Pradakaran, Sri Govindan and Sri Pratiban
Sri Rajan Industries, Tamilnadu, India

This is a bronze sculpture of the Hindu god Shiva in his dancing form of Nataraja (Lord of Dance).  As Nataraja, Shiva performs the Ananda Tandava (dance of bliss), the dance in which the universe is created, maintained, and dissolved.  This sculpture depicts all three of those aspects at once.  Shiva in his role as Nataraja represents the Indian conception of the never-ending cycle of time.  The purpose of this sculpture is to alert the viewer that through belief and devotion to Shiva, one can achieve salvation (or moksha).  Cast in 2013, this sculpture is an example of the centuries-old tradition of the lost-wax casting method perfected during India’s Chola dynasty (c. 850 CE – 1250 CE).

Shiva Nataraja

Prambanan Temple is said to be the most beautiful Hindu temple in the world. It is the biggest temple complex in Java with three main temples dedicated to the three great Hindu divinities, Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma, the symbols of Trimurti in Hindu belief.

Hanuman Ji is one of the most revered deities from  the Hindu Mythology and is an avatar of Shiva. He is  the personification of dedication and devotion. He is a   spirited and energetic figure and was endowed with  great strength and the shastras abound in tales  narrating his remarkable feats. Once for example   Hanuman mistook the sun for a ripe fruit (monkeys  are naturally lured by red ripe fruits) and rushed  towards the sky in an attempt to grab it. He is the sun  of the Wind God and for the aforementioned feat was  cursed to forget his powers, only to remember them  in aid of Lord Ram. Lord Hanuman is said to exist wherever Lord Ram is glorified and is his greatest and  most devoted servant. A fun fact: his name means 'broken jaw'.

Volcanic stone Ganesha, 10th - 11th C CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

From the sculpture's description on artsmia.org:

*'...In this classic tenth-century Javanese depiction, from the island of Java, Ganesha sits erect on a double lotus base. Pot bellied and with his chubby feet held tightly together, he eats sweetmeats from a bowl in his lower left hand. His headdress, made of braided locks, bears a protective crescent moon and skull. His lower right hand grasps a broken tusk, while his upper right hand holds a rosary topped with a pomegranate, a symbol of abundance. In his upper left hand, he displays a battle-axe used to counter evil. Ganesha images often decorated the principal niche in the western wall of a Shiva temple.'*

Ganesha (Sanskrit: गणेश Gaṇeśa m.) literally: "Lord (Isha) of the hosts (Gana)"; name of the god of the beginning. Ganesha is the elephant-headed god in Hinduism. He is the son of Shiva and Parvati and the brother of Subrahmanya. He also goes by the names Ganapati and Gananayaka.

(thanks to Dan Pett for pointing me to the above record!)

Description from FLickr user [plnghl](https://www.flickr.com/photos/plnghl/):

"Ganesha is one of the most popular Hindu gods and is the son of Parvati. He is the lord of beginnings as well as the placer and remover of obstacles. He usually carries one of his own tusks in one hand and a bowl of sweets; here he also carries a rosaryand and an axe. 

In myth, Ganesha received his elephant's head when, in a temper, Shiva cut off his human head. Later, he swore to replace it with the head of the first creature he encountered, which was an elephant."

Bronze Indian Somaskanda, 14th or 15th C CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Instutute of Art. 

About 60cm x 70cm x 30cm (23 x 26 x 13 inches)

From its description on artsmia.org:

*'Shiva and his wife Uma sit next to each other on double lotus pedestals, between them a residual remnant of their small child, Skanda, now missing from the magnificent bronze. The standard format—known as Somaskanda—arose as early as the 6th century in temples from Tamil Nadu, and remains Shiva’s main manifest form today. In south Indian temples, bronze images play a huge role in devotional practice, where they are treated as living embodiments of the gods. The holes in the base indicate that this particular bronze would have been carried in processions outside the temple grounds.'*
