Dancing Girl (prehistoric sculpture)

Dancing Girl is a prehistoric bronze sculpture made in lost-wax casting in the Indus Valley Civilisation city of Mohenjo-daro (in modern-day Pakistan). Quotes about Copper and bronze smiths used Magan’s copper to make bronze arrowheads, spears, fishhooks, tools and copper and bronze ornaments. Some like the ‘Dancing Girl’ found at Mohenjo-Daro dating to around 2,500 BC were made by the lost-wax method. Naked, confident, with hand on hip and head held high, it is the earliest known portrayal of realism in sculpture, modern and sophisticated in artistic style and technical manufacture. in : Nick Collins - How Maritime Trade and the Indian Subcontinent Shaped the World (2022) External links Category:Sculptures
