About This Item
In Hindu imagery, Nandi is the sacred bull often found guarding the entrance of many Hindu temples. Nandi is also the primary vehicle for Shiva, the Auspicious One, and Shiva's principal gana, or disciple. Through the images of Nandi and Shiva, Hinduism teaches the fundamental principles of selfless giving and harmonious living. This beautifully crafted cold cast bronze statue measures 6 inches long, 3.5 inches wide and 4.5 inches high, and depicts Nandi in bull form, reclining on a platform.
