The face has a small raised urna mark on the forehead, almond-shaped eyes, a thin moustache and a serene slight smile. The head wears a tall jata-style crown with a fluted headband and a finial, and an ornate beaded collar sits below the neck. Carved swirling scroll and flame-like motifs fill the background behind the head. No people are visible; the figure is sculpture.2011-06-24October 15 20082008-10-15Close-up photograph of a weathered grey stone relief carving of a small standing figure seen from behind.
