Mahasiddha, Possibly Campaka, the Flower King
Bronze statue of a male figure with a facial expression, appearing to have a mustache and goatee. The figure has long hair pulled back, with earrings hanging from both ears. He wears nothing but a cloth wrapped around his lower body. The figure sits cross-legged on a rectangular base with a flat top. The base features a design of three animal-like figures. The figure's right arm is raised above his head, and his left arm is raised at shoulder-height. Both hands are making gestures. The background transitions from black at the top to gray, then to white at the bottom.
