Mogao Caves: Standing Bodhisattva
CHINA, Gansu, Dunhuang; Northern Zhou dynasty
This sculpture is thought to be from Mogao Cave 128. The Bodhisattva wears a headdress and a stole that flows around the arms and loops twice over the lower garment. Minor repairs have been made to the body, but the arms are too damaged to tell what gestures they made.
