Vishnu is the Hindu deity that is the protector and the preserver God of the trinity, his vehicle is Garuda who is powerful in his own right. Garuda also uses his powers for good as a protector and a rescuer. Gaurda helps to dissolve negative energies and also guards the home and instills his great power to those he protects. This Balinese carving has great detail, all their royal finery, the painting is classic-the tartan garment for Garuda the face of Vishnu is perfect, all the extra touches are there. Vishnu is giving the warning mudra with his left hand and he holds the elixir in his right hand; Garuda with massive talons gripping the base covered with the clouds and swirls in great relief. This is a very birdlike rendition of Garuda his beak fierce and menacing his wings are massive as is his tail which is put together with joinery to achieve its size. This is a devotional figure that would make the centerpiece of any collection.
