About the sculpture

This figure was found at Chau Say Tevoda, one of the smaller sanctuaries at Angkor. The draped lower garment worn around the hips shows that it is made in the Bayon style. The simple floral pattern, decorated drapery pleats and ornamentation of the hip band are characteristic of this style.
