Shiva Nataraja, Lord of the Dance, bronze, Vijayanagar, 1450-1500. Encircled by flames, Shiva as Cosmic Dancer dances the universe into being, sustains it with his rhythm and dances it back into annihilation. He holds a hand drum and a flame in his upper hands. His lower hands make the fear-dispelling gesture and point to his raised foot, the worship of which leads to salvation. His other foot bears down on the dwarf Apasmara who represents Maya or illusion.
