Padmapani

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a small, dark grey statue of Padmapani. The statue depicts a male figure with a serene expression, standing on a round base. The figure has long hair and a halo behind his head. He wears a necklace and a dhoti, and his right hand is at his side while his left hand holds an object. A long cloth drapes over his left shoulder and trails down to the base. The background is a gradient from light grey at the bottom to dark grey at the top.
