专家说明

Ganesha is seated in a typical Indonesian position with the soles of his feet joined. Despite its small size, the sculpture is highly detailed. His torso is encircled by a snake in place of a sacred thread, the textiles of the cushion and dhoti are embellished with diaper patterns, and he is associated with his father, Shiva, by the crescent moon and skull in the center of his headdress.
