Khmer Carved Sandstone Male Deity, Style of the Baphoun, 11th Century
About the Item
A delightful carved sandstone sculpture of an unidentified male deity, Khmer, Angkor Period, style of the Baphuon, 11th century.
The smiling, youthful male figure is portrayed standing upright, knees slightly bent, dressed in a pleated and tied sampot. His hair arranged in neat tresses and tied in a low chignon surmounted by a stylized lotus blossom.
His face rendered in the typical squared off Khmer fashion with almond shaped eyes, a broad, flattened nose, and square lips curved upward in a gracious smile. Traces of an incised mustache and beard are present, which associates this figure with the Hindu god Shiva. However, without the third eye present, it is not possible to identify this figure as such.
The slim figure portrayed in a naturalistic fashion, with narrow hips and broad shoulders, the belly slightly extended.
Measures: Height of figure only 21"
Provenance: Private Southern California collection, early 2000s.

A fine and rare Indian carved sandstone stele of a Jain family group, Sarnath style, early Indian Medieval period, 6th-7th century, Uttar Pradesh, India.

Collection of Three Indian Sandstone Carved Heads of Deities
Located in Atlanta, GA
A collection of three carved sandstone heads on wood display stands from Northern India Rajasthan or
Madhya Pradesh, circa 11-12th century. Fragmented from large whole-body statue, these red sandstone heads exhibit very fine carving, typical of Northern Indian Art during the medieval time. Two males and one female, they represent heavenly deities Yakshas and Yakshini. Their facial features were detailed with large almond-shape eyes under thin arched eyebrows. The males have characteristic facial hairs including curvy moustaches and tightly combed beard, both finely carved, and the female wears large spoke loop earrings. They all don fantastical hairstyles with serpent-like spiral locks and some with elaborate knots on top and above the sideburns.
These deities are likely celestial musicians. A pair of full-body statues (lot 70) were offered for sale in Christie's Indian and Southeast Asian Art...
