BUDDHA’S HEAD #25

Mármol negro, talla.

This head corresponds to a much later style than the previous one. It shows certain characteristics of the Tang style, reinterpreted with less delicacy and spirituality in the representation than the originals. Maintaining the iconographic characteristics of the Buddhas and bodhisattvas, it marks with a very linear design the eyes and eyebrows that subtracts expressiveness to the general image of the divinity.
