专家说明

The figure wears clothing that is distinctive for women in Kashmiri sculpture. It consists of a tight-fitting tunic with an inverted u-shaped hem and deeply pendant ends over a long dhoti, in this case finely pleated. For examples of other figures in this dress, see P. Pal, The Arts of Kashmir, 2007, p. 72, fig. 63 and p. 86, fig. 85.
