Dancing Girl
It is a bronze statuette created over 4,500 years ago during the Indus valley Civilisation.
It was found in the ancient Mohenjo-Daro site in 1926. Mohenjo-daro is located off the right (west) bank of the lower Indus river in Larkana District, Sindh, Pakistan.
This statue reflecting the aesthetics of a female body as conceptualized during that historical period.
The bronze girl was made using the lost-wax casting technique.
The statuette was named Dancing Girl based on an assumption of her profession.
She is one of two bronze artworks found at Mohenjo-Daro that shows a more natural pose than compared to other more formal figures.
The statuette has large eyes, a flat nose, healthy cheeks, curly hair, and a broad forehead.
She is a tall figure with long legs and arms, high neck, subdued belly, and sensuously modeled.
The girl wears some bangles and a necklace.
She has 25 bracelets on her left arm and four bangles on her right arm and is holding an object in her left hand.
Her long hair styled as big bun rested on her shoulder.
Lost Wax Technique
This wax model is then covered with a clay coating, leaving some holes as passageways.
When the clay-covered moulds are heated in the oven, the wax melts out.
After the mould has cooled down, the outer clay cover is chipped off and the finishing touches are done to the solid bronze statue.
Hence option 1st is correct.
