The image displays a bronze figure of the Hindu deity Krishna in a dancing pose.
This type of sculpture, often referred to as "Dancing Krishna" or "Balakrishna" (child Krishna), is a popular subject in South Indian bronze art.
The figure is typically depicted holding a butterball, referencing Krishna's childhood mischief of stealing butter.
Such figures are often cast using the lost-wax method, a traditional technique passed down through generations in South India.
These statues can be found in various sizes and are used for worship in homes and temples, or as decorative art pieces.
