Mold and Impression for a Seated Buddha
Two reddish-brown clay objects, titled "Mold and Impression for a Seated Buddha" by an unknown artist. The objects are roughly rectangular with rounded tops. The object on the left is a mold with an indented image of a seated Buddha. The Buddha sits cross-legged with hands folded in front of him, and a curved line behind his head. The base of the mold has a wavy line of bumps. The object on the right is an impression of the mold, with the Buddha and background in relief and a flat base with rounded bumps. The background of the image is gray.
