拍品描述 翻译
A KONDH TRIBAL BRONZE FIGURE OF A DANGARIAN MOTHER AND INFANT, ORISSA, 19TH CENTURYEastern India. Expressively cast, the figure stands poised while balancing a water pot upon her head. She is clad in garments incised with a delicate hatched pattern and adorned with jewelry. At her hip she supports an infant, who suckles at one breast while grasping the other. Her face is finely modeled, with almond-shaped eyes set beneath thickly arched brows, the lips gently pursed into a subtle smile. Hoop earrings frame her face, and her hair is drawn into a chignon swept to one side.Provenance: From a private collection in Germany.Condition: Very good condition with expected wear and casting irregularities. Small nicks and losses, light scratches, and minor surface corrosion. The bronze with a rich, naturally grown, dark patina with malachite encrustations.Weight: 1,834 g Dimensions: Height 33.2 cmDhokra is a traditional metal craft produced using the lost-wax casting technique, in which molten metal is poured into a mold formed around a modeled wax core. Once heated, the wax melts away, leaving a cavity that receives the metal; after cooling, the mold is broken to reveal the finished form, making each piece unique. Rooted in an ancient tribal lineage, this craft continues to flourish in the tribal regions of Odisha (formerly Orissa), where artisan communities have preserved the technique across generations. Characterized by elongated proportions, openwork detailing, and textured surfaces created by coiled wax threads, Dhokra objects range from ritual figures to depictions of daily life, retaining a direct, unembellished vitality that reflects their indigenous origins.The Kondh tribe, one of India's largest indigenous communities, inhabits the forested highlands of Odisha and parts of Chhattisgarh. Known for their deep-rooted spiritual connection to the land, the Kondh express their beliefs through ritual, oral tradition, and material culture. Though not widely associated with metalworking, certain Kondh groups have long created lost-wax bronze figures—stylized depictions of animals, ancestors, and deities—used in ancestral rites, village ceremonies, and votive offerings. These bronzes are not merely decorative, but charged with ritual significance.The Dangaria Kandha people are members of the Kondhs. They are located in the Niyamgiri hills in the state of Odisha. The Dangaria Kandha worship Niyam Raja (Niyamraja), the supreme god of the Niyamgiri jungle, believing that Niyam Raja is the source of their essential resources. The deep reverence and respect that the Dongria have for their gods, hills, and streams pervades every aspect of their lives. Even their art reflects the mountains, in the triangular designs found on village shrines to the many gods of the village, farm and forests, and their leader, Niyam Raja.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related smaller dhokra figure of a Dangarian mother and baby, dated to the 19th century, 20.6 cm high, in the Kala Bhoomi Odisha Crafts Museum, Bhubaneswar, museum number 2/01/27/2/17/1258, and illustrated in the Virtual Museum of Images and Sounds, accession number KB03314.
