Seated Yaksha

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a figure titled "Seated Yaksha". The figure is seated with legs crossed, feet visible. The figure has a rounded face with small circular eyes and a small nose. The head is adorned with a decorative design on top. The body wears a long cloth garment wrapped around the waist with folds and creases. The garment covers the legs. The figure's right arm is bent at the elbow, with the hand likely resting on the knee, though the hand is not fully visible. The sculpture appears to be made of stone or clay and has a weathered appearance with visible signs of aging. The background of the image is a gradient transitioning from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The sculpture sits on a flat surface, casting a shadow to the left.
