Mask of Vaikuntha Vishnu late 5th century India (Jammu and Kashmir, ancient kingdom of Kashmir) This early representation of Vishnu expresses the deitys supreme manifestation, in which his two premier avatars, the boar Varaha and the man-lion Narasimha, are given expression in one form, the three-headed Para Vasudeva or Vaikuntha. Here, only the boar survives intact, framing the moustached and crowned Vishnu, who embodies an Indian vision of kingship. This remarkable bronze mask would have been secured to a wood frame, richly clothed, and garlanded to evoke the presence of Vishnu during temple festival parades, as is still seen today in the remoter regions of Himachal Pradesh in northern India.. Mask of Vaikuntha Vishnu. India (Jammu and Kashmir, ancient kingdom of Kashmir). late 5th century. Bronze. Sculpture
