Torso of a male deity
This elegant male torso represents an unidentified (Hindu) deity. The head, arms and feet are missing. There is a notable difference in weathering and patina between the front and back of the figure, with the front being slightly more eroded, particularly on the abdomen. On the shoulder(s), sides, back and legs of the figure, where the original surface polish is preserved, a difference can be observed between these surfaces - representing naked skin - and the clothing, which has been left deliberately unpolished to provide a tantalizing contrast of textures.
Head of a god or royal figure
This fragmentary red granite head in all likelihood depicts either a royal figure or a deity. The archaizing features of the triangular face are delicately sculpted, featuring a broad nose, prominent cheekbones and a rounded chin. The fleshy lips are pursed into a serene smile, further accentuated by the indented corners of the mouth.
