About This Piece
Three standing Buddhist figures are arranged side by side beneath an ornamental top band. Lotus forms at the base and separate halos give each figure a defined place within the rectangular frame.
Carving details and what to examine
The plant forms invite a close look at the meeting points between petals, leaves and the surrounding ground. Compare these small details with the larger outline to judge the balance of the design. Side lighting is useful for seeing depth without mistaking a cast shadow for a carved line.
