Description This large mythical bird is a representation of birth and heaven and an enemy of snakes, carrying amalgamated features of an eagle and human. Here it sits on a large stylized throne crowned with long and fancy peacock
feathers and two peacock torsos heading out at the seat from either side. Garuda is the vahana of Lord Vishnu and appears in both Hindu and Buddhist mythology. It is carved here in its traditional iconography of the torso and arms of a man and wings, head, beak, and talons of an eagle. It is also known as the ‘King of Birds’ (Khageswara) with beautiful feathers. Have a look at the giant feathers of this sculpture, chiseled in a distinctive three-layered pattern that ascends downward and is fashionably separated by thin vertical stripes with blunt edges. Its fearsome look can be identified by the carvings of its open beak and the expression of eyes; garbed in a knee-length dhoti and a long double-layered kamarband and lavishly ornamented in precious jewels and a small crown that fits its head. Garuda holds an Amrit Kalash and a serpent in his hands.
