About the sculpture
This ivory carving was made In India as a facing for wooden furniture, which disintegrated, leaving only the ivory veneers. Most of the imagery is life-affirming and auspicious, as seen in the image of a young woman. Indian ivory-faced furnishings--along with lacquer boxes from China and painted glass from Rome--were found in an extraordinary deposit of luxury goods at a site called Begram.
