Antique Dattatreya Figure, Balinese, Bronze, Religious Icon, Hinduism, Victorian

This is an antique Dattatreya figure. A Balinese, bronze religious icon portraying a Hindu Trimukha statuette, dating to the late Victorian period, circa 1900. Superb deity figure with a delightful visual appeal that displays a desirable aged patina and in good order. Quality bronze form, issuing excellent golden tonality. Good weight in the hand at a substantial 4.488kg (9.89 lb). Displayed in seated 'Full Lotus' position, known within Hinduism as Padmasana.
