Vishnu durmiendo — Historia y Análisis

Esta cabeza formaba originalmente parte de una figura completa de Vishnu. El dios hindú habría sido representado reclinado de lado, apoyando su cabeza en su mano. El daño detrás de su oreja derecha marca el lugar donde habría estado la mano.

Según la creencia hindú, la creación es cíclica. Antes de cada nuevo ciclo de creación, Vishnu duerme y sueña con la próxima regeneración.
