Nataraja, Nateshvara, or Nriteshvara, meaning the 'King or Lord of the Dance', is the specific aspect in which Shiva manifested when he performed his cosmic dance, known as ananda- tandava, the 'Wild Dance of Great Bliss'. This representation of Shiva as the King of Dance (Skt. nataraja) probably first arose during the sixth century, and with the development of the Saiva-Siddhanta philosophical traditions of South India the image of Nataraja became very popular, particularly during the period of the Chola dynasty (880-1279). Beautiful Nataraj statue is made from Poly Resin. Size:2.5" X 1.5" X 3" Show more
