Description.
A carved and polychromed bone figure. It has a rectangular base supported by four feet in the shape of a beast, decorated with a frieze of openwork details and incised vegetal motifs. Above this rises a sinuous structure, crowned by an oval body, where the deity is placed, standing on a lotus throne, dressed in a long robe, with long ribbons and jewels adorning his body. A large diadem of heads crowns the figure with its serene and kindly expression. Her two front arms are held with palms joined at chest level, while the rest of her arms are extended, carrying traditional ritual elements. It has losses and restorations.
Size: 80 x 23 x 45.5 cm
