Standing Nagaraja (Serpent King)
Reddish-brown stone statue of a standing male figure with a crown on its head and long earrings. The figure wears a long robe with a belt around the waist. The figure's right hand is closed into a fist and the left hand grasps the folds of the robe. A serpent emerges on either side of the figure's legs. The serpent on the right wraps around to the front of the figure and the one on the left wraps around to the back. The figure stands on a white pedestal against a beige wall.
