Over de sculptuur
This Buddhist devotional image, probably commissioned for donation to a temple at Pagan, depicts a male figure, probably the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, seated in the dress and posture of 'royal ease'. This unique Buddhist image is an iconographic rarity in that it may be dated as late as the 10th or 11th century; but it represents the work of craftsmen working in the earlier tradition.
