The reason why Vishnu appeared in the form of half-man, half-lion has an interesting tale behind it. Prahlada, son of the evil and powerful king Harinyakasipu, was a pious boy devoted to Vishnu. His father tried to discourage his pious inclination and inflicted on him cruel punishments. Eventually he decided to kill the child. Hiranyakasipu himself was invulnerable; he had received a boon as a result of ritual penance to Shiva whereby he could not be defeated by man, god or beast, neither in day nor night, not inside or outside. To save Prahlada and destroy the evil king, Vishnu appeared at twilight (neither day nor night), as a lion headed man (neither man nor beast), within a pillar (neither in or out) and put the king on his lap (neither on the ground or up in the air) and put an end to him using his claws (no weapon).

On a multi layered square pedestal is the inverted lotus seat on which sits Narasimha, cross-legged. He wears a beautifully crafted crown and holds all of Vishnu's attributes. Pictures of Vishnu in his various avatars abound but sculptural representation of the god in his early incarnations are rare.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?


Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

 

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

 

  • The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

 

 

  • To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.


  • In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth. 

 

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
