The Head of a Bodhisattva depicts a humanoid head with a serene expression. The head is made of brown stone and features a prominent forehead, thin eyebrows, a nose, and lips. The eyes are half-closed. The head is adorned with a tall headdress that has a triangular shape at its center, flanked by feather-like protrusions. The headdress also features a series of concentric ridges at its base. The background of the image transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom.
