{"product_id":"natraja-in-kerala-mural-by-adarsh","title":"Natraja","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eThis vibrant Kerala mural painting by artist Adarsh depicts Lord Nataraja, the cosmic dancer and divine master of rhythmic creation, preservation, and dissolution. Kerala mural painting is a traditional South Indian art form originating between the ninth and fourteenth centuries, renowned for its rich earth-toned natural pigments, intricate double-line contours, dynamic iconographic symmetry, and sacred temple wall heritage. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEncased within an ornate circular halo of fire and light (prabhamandala), the multi-armed figure of Lord Shiva performs the ecstatic dance of bliss (Ananda Tandava). His sixteen outstretched arms form a radiant radial arrangement, grasping a formidable collection of sacred weapons and divine attributes: the damaru (hourglass drum), trishula (trident), mruga (deer), pasha (noose), parashu (battle-axe), bow and arrow, shakti (spear), khetaka (shield), khadga (sword), ankusha (goad), gada (mace), and bell, while his central hands exhibit mudras of protection and grace. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe deity is magnificently adorned in classical Kerala iconography, featuring an elaborate multi-tiered conical headpiece (jatamukuta) topped with crescent moon motifs, coiled serpent armlets (sarpa-keyura), and ornate ear ornaments (kundala). His expressive face, rendered with delicate arching eyebrows, elongated eyes, and a serene third eye, conveys deep divine composure amidst cosmic movement. Draped in gold-striped lower garments tied with dynamic, floating ribbons, Shiva balances rhythmically on his bent legs atop a decorative pedestal. The circular prabhamandala is ringed with lotus-petal motifs and flame jets, set against a rich background of undulating, fiery orange cloud scrolls and dark, wave-like bands that project the infinite energy of the cosmic dance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adarsh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67599903424726,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/1498\/files\/1._Natraja_in_Kerala_Mural_by_Adarsh.jpg?v=1792068291","url":"https:\/\/www.memeraki.com\/products\/natraja-in-kerala-mural-by-adarsh","provider":"Memeraki Retail and Tech Pvt Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
