O soše
The twelfth-century sculpture Deity, in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, shows an older man with a long beard. His identity remains uncertain. Robes, a crown-like ornament and a topknot resemble the appearance of Buddhist heavenly beings known in Japan as tenbu. Other features suggest a different connection. The comparatively plain design and visible tool marks, deliberately left across the surface, are often found in representations of kami, the deities honoured at shrines called jinja. These features leave the figure's religious identity unresolved.
Slovy muzea
This unidentified sculpture represents a mature male figure with a long beard. His robes, crown-like head ornament, and hair arranged into a topknot resemble the attire and styling of members of the heavenly realm—tenbu in Japanese—of the Buddhist cosmos. The comparatively simple design, along with carving marks purposely left by the sculptor throughout the surface tend to be associated with sculptures of kami, deities venerated at shrines, or jinja.
