Miniature Seated Ganesa

Cleveland Museum of Art

The statue depicts a seated figure with a large elephant head, titled "Miniature Seated Ganesa" by an unknown artist. The figure has a large head with an elephant's trunk, small eyes, and rounded ears. The figure is sitting cross-legged on a flat base with one hand resting on its knee and the other bent at the elbow. The figure wears a crown-like object on its head and a decorative belt around its waist. The statue is made of a greenish-gray stone or metal with visible signs of aging and wear. The background of the image is a gradient gray color.
