Fragment with a Head of Bodhisattva

Cleveland Museum of Art

A fragment of a mural painting, titled "Fragment with a Head of Bodhisattva" by an unknown artist. The fragment is roughly rectangular with irregular edges and a rough texture, appearing to be a piece of plaster that has broken off from a larger surface. The background of the fragment is beige with patches of brown and gray. A face is painted on the right side in orange and red hues with one visible eye, one eyebrow, nose, and mouth. The face is surrounded by a blue and green area on the bottom right and a red and orange area on the top right. On the left side, there are blue, green, and red areas with three horizontal red lines. The fragment is set against a dark green background.
