Onyx Sculpture - Lord Vishnu Dashavatara

Masterpiece, magnum opus or chef-d’œuvre

 

Dashavatara refers to the ten primary avatars of Vishnu, the Hindu god of preservation. Vishnu is said to descend in form of an avatar to restore cosmic order. The word Dashavatara derives from daśa, meaning 'ten', and avatar (avatāra), roughly equivalent to 'incarnation'.
