Bodhisattva with Radiate Halo and Mandorla
The sculpture depicts a figure with a serene expression and closed eyes. The figure wears a crown and has earrings. A large, oval-shaped halo surrounds the figure's head and a larger, oval-shaped mandorla surrounds the figure's body. The figure is adorned with multiple necklaces and a draped garment. The figure's right hand is raised in a gesture and the left hand holds an object. The sculpture is gray in color. The background of the image transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The Bodhisattva with Radiate Halo and Mandorla, by unknown artist, appears to be made of stone.
