Head of a Luohan
The sculpture depicts a head of a Luohan by artist unknown. The head is carved from a dark brown material, likely wood or stone, and features a serene expression. The Luohan has a bald head, and the ears are visible on either side. The facial features include a long nose and a subtle, closed-mouth smile. The eyes are closed, and there are wrinkles around the eyes and mouth. The base of the neck is visible, with an irregular edge where it appears to have been broken off. The background is a plain white wall, providing a neutral contrast to the sculpture.
