The Indian marble bust of the god Kartikeya is a sculptural representation of one of Hinduism’s prominent deities, known variously as Kartikeya, Skanda, Murugan, and Subramanya. Kartikeya is revered as the god of war and is especially significant in South Indian and Tamil traditions.

Kartikeya is commonly depicted as a youthful, handsome deity. Marble busts may show him with one or multiple faces (often six, symbolizing his six attributes and origins), and sometimes with multiple heads, referencing his mythological birth from six sparks
