A CHLORITIC SCHIST FRAGMENT OF KRISHNA LIFTING MOUNT GOVARDHAN, HOYSALA DYNASTY (1000-1346), KARNATAKA, SOUTHERN INDIAExpert's note:As described in the Bhagavata Purana, the youthful Krishna miraculously lifts Mount Govardhan near Mathura to shelter villagers and cowherds from the devastating storm unleashed by Indra. The present figure, identified by the raised proper left arm held well above the head, clearly corresponds to this iconography. Although preserved only as a fragment, the gesture proves that it once formed part of a larger narrative frieze depicting the Govardhan episode.A close comparable and fully preserved rendering of this subject appears at the Hoysaleshwar Temple, constructed in the 12th century under the Hoysala ruler Vishnuvardhana (r. 1108-1152). The temple is renowned for its dense narrative reliefs, rhythmic figural modeling, sharply defined ornament, and highly intricate surface treatment carved in chloritic schist, exactly like the present fragment. The sculptural language—characterized by dynamic movement, elaborate jewelry, and crisply articulated physiognomies—provides a compelling stylistic framework for understanding the present fragment, even if its original architectural context cannot be fully reconstructed with certainty.Exquisitely modeled, the deity with his left arm raised and outstretched, the angular face with crisply delineated features such as heavy-lidded downcast eyes, elegantly arched eyebrows, and bow-shaped lips forming a calm smile, flanked by pendulous earlobes suspending circular earrings, the chest adorned with a beaded necklace, the upavita diagonally crossing the chest, and the hair modeled in twisted braids, tied away from the face and looped into an elegant chignon over the head, centered by a tear-drop form ornament.Provenance: From a private collection in Belgium, acquired in India in the 1980s-1990s. Condition: Very good condition, commensurate with age. Expected wear, signs of weathering and erosion, encrustations, obvious losses, minor chips, small nicks and surface scratches.Weight: 25.8 kg (excl. stand) Dimensions: Height 45 cm (excl. stand)With an associated metal stand. (2)Southern India during the 11th to 13th centuries experienced an extraordinary phase of temple construction under the patronage of the Hoysala rulers and influential regional elites. Working primarily in finely grained chloritic schist, architects and sculptors developed increasingly sophisticated star-shaped plans, multiplying wall projections and recesses that created expansive sculptural surfaces. These articulated fa?ades were animated by dense narrative friezes and a profusion of deities, celestial beings, and mythological scenes rendered with remarkable precision and rhythmic elegance.The Hoysala dynasty ruled large parts of present-day Karnataka and neighboring regions from approximately the 11th century until the mid-14th century, reaching its zenith in the 12th and 13th centuries. Their principal capitals included Belur and Halebidu (formerly Dvarasamudra). Under rulers such as Vishnuvardhana (r. 1108-1152 CE), the dynasty sponsored some of South India's most celebrated temples, establishing a sculptural tradition distinguished by technical virtuosity, dense ornamental programs, and dynamic yet controlled figural expression.Auction result comparison: Type: RelatedAuction: Christie's New York, 18 March 2015, lot 4050Price: USD 75,000 or approx.
