Artist: Mohit Jangid
Material: Single Block Sandalwood
Size: 2 feet (24 inches)
Origin: Jaipur, Rajasthan
Inspiration: Goethe’s Faust – Symbolic Duality of Good and Evil
This 2-foot-tall double-sided sandalwood sculpture is a rare and iconic representation of Mephistopheles and Margaretta, inspired by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s Faust. It is carved from a single block of pure Indian sandalwood by internationally recognized master artist Mohit Jangid, blending Western literary themes with traditional Indian miniature carving craftsmanship.
The statue is an artistic dual-form:
On one side, it features Mephistopheles, the dark and cunning demon spirit, with sharp facial features, flowing robes, and a powerful posture, symbolizing temptation, intellect, and manipulation.
On the reverse side, Margaretta (Gretchen) is depicted with gentle grace, her expression soft and innocent, clutching prayer beads, embodying purity, devotion, and tragedy.
This double-faced sculpture merges two complete personalities into one piece—demonstrating dualism, contrast, and human struggle between virtue and vice. The composition is both philosophically deep and technically remarkable, with precise micro-carving on both figures, making it an intellectual and visual masterpiece.
