Attendant bodhisattva
The stone sculpture depicts a figure with a serene expression, wearing a crown-like structure on top of their head. The figure has a slender build and stands upright. The face is elongated with a subtle smile. The eyes are closed or lightly closed. The figure wears a long robe with folds carved into the stone to create texture and depth. The right hand is raised, palm facing outwards, while the left hand rests by the side, possibly holding an object. The figure stands on a small base. The background of the image transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray towards the bottom.
