Over de sculptuur

In the Majapahit kingdom on Java, members of the royal family were often identified with gods from Buddhism or Hinduism after their death. This relief represents the deified form of a queen or princess. She has four arms and is standing in a static, upright pose. She holds a lotus flower, a symbol of divinity, in her two front hands.
