VISHNÚ #20
Figure of small size representing the god Vishnu, standing with four arms whose hands hold the characteristic attributes of this divinity in the front arms holding a mallet and a dagger, while in the back arms a lotus and a conch shell. The head is topped by a small halo, like the figure of Ganesha (cat. 81), showing us a very well defined treatment of the body. Vishnu appears with a cloth that covers him from the waist to the feet, and molds the lower part of his body with suggestive transparencies.
