A symbol of bliss and auspiciousness is Ganesha’s form as “Nritya Ganapati”, cherished by devotees as a visual representation of goodness and grace.
To add to the sculpture's dramatic effect, Ganesha gracefully positions his figure and tosses one hand in the air while the other parallels his swaying trunk. The tilt of his head and the floating tassel of his head covering lend another sense of graceful and quick movement.
Even with the sparse embellishment, the exquisite intricacies of Ganesha's jewels and the delicate folds of his dhoti speak for the meticulous work done by the sculptor, slowly cutting through the hardness of granite with hand-held tools.
In this stone artwork, Ganesha, with one hand raised to the sky and the other hanging downward, uses his eternal dance to bring the heavenliness of God's home into the human world.
