Lot Description
Sandstone Buddha on Muchalinda 11th/12th century
A Khmer stone figure of Buddha seated in dhyana mudra on the three coiled body of the naga, its fragmentary seven heads rising behind the Lord Buddha's head forming a nimbus. The simplicity of the body is sharply contrasted with the hood which is delicately inscribed with scales and chakras. Buddha's hands resting in his lap in dhyana mudra, his smooth undecorated hair surmounted by a conical usnisa.
