Brahma from Mirpur-Khas

Width: 53 cm The Brahma from Mirpur Khas is an important 5th or 6th century bronze or brass statue of the Hindu god Brahma made during the Gupta period in Sindh, in modern Pakistan.

Few metal statues this large have survived from Gupta art, and even fewer with a Hindu subject.

[8] Vasudeva Sharana Agrawala calls it "an exceptionally good specimen of the art of metal-casting in this period".

[9] Śrīrāma and Śaṅkara Goyala term is "true memorial of Gupta metalsmith's artistic genius".

[12] The Brahma from Mirpur Khas has been widely used by art historians for comparison with other artwork of historical significance.
