Architectural Relief with Figures and Animals
Sulla scultura
The figures on these panels appear to represent divine couples (mithuna), celestial females (apsarases), and women making offerings to a male ascetic figure or demigod. These divine beings are considered auspicious, and their presence on the exterior walls of temples is said to secure blessings and protection for the sacred space inside.
