World's Tallest 'Nataraja' Statue Takes Centre Stage at G20 Summit Venue

  • In a remarkable display of artistry and cultural significance, a colossal 'Nataraja' statue, believed to be the world's tallest, was meticulously installed at the prestigious venue of the G20 Summit in Delhi. This awe-inspiring 28-foot tall statue, inclusive of its pedestal, has been crafted using the ancient lost-wax technique of metal casting, echoing the remarkable artistry of the famed Chola bronzes from the past.
  • It is sculpted by Thanjavur's traditional Sthapatis of Swamimalai.
  • The lost-wax process, a time-honoured tradition in sculptural craftsmanship, has its roots dating back to the era of the Cholas, whose bronze creations continue to be treasured today. In this intricate metal casting method, molten metal, often bronze, gold, or silver, is poured into a mold created using wax or similar resin-like materials. Once the metal cools and solidifies, the wax model is melted and removed, leaving behind the exquisite artwork.
