Head of Buddha

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Head of Buddha by an unknown artist depicts a sculpture of a head with a serene expression. The head is made of a weathered brown stone. The hair is depicted as small, tightly coiled curls that cover the top of the head. The face is round with a subtle smile and closed eyes. The nose is straight and proportional to the rest of the facial features. A small circular mark is visible on the forehead. The background is a gradient transitioning from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The sculpture sits on a black stand.
