1. Stupa Nepal 15th-16th c. 7 1/2" tall |
Detail: 1 This finely wrought image of stupa likely represents the great monument of Swambhunath in the Kathmandu valley, the focus of Newar Buddhist veneration. Almost every Newar Buddhist household would contain a small image of this great stupa, but this sculpture is finer than most. The proportions approach perfection. Detail: 2 |
