DESCRIPTION

In the realm of Hinduism, the powerful deity Aadyanta Prabhu is a unique embodiment of both Ganesha and Hanuman. Revered for removing obstacles and providing good fortune, Ganesha is often invoked before embarking on new endeavors, earning him the prefix of "aadi" or first. Meanwhile, Hanuman, the immortal avatar of Lord Shiva, is known for withstanding the end of time, giving him the title of "anta" or end. Melding these two deities, Aadyanta Prabhu is born. Using the lost wax method of crafting, this sculpture showcases Ganesha's iconic trunk and body, with Hanuman's mighty mace held firmly in the left hand.

ABOUT LOST WAX BRONZE SCULPTURES

The Lost Wax Process is a metal casting method where hot metal is poured into a wax model that is melted away, creating detailed sculptures. This process was traditionally used with copper, but bronze is now the preferred material for its strength. The sculptor spends weeks to months on each piece, resulting in one-of-a-kind and special sculptures with intricate details.
