Asian Khmer Cambodia Stoned Carved Head Bust of Male Buddhist Buddha Shiva Deity
About the Item
A wonderfully sand stone-carved Asian deity figure / sculpture likely from Cambodia. The detailed head is likely that of the divinity deity Shiva, sometimes referred to as the smiling God-King. The features are clearly reminiscent of the carvings found at both Bayon Temple at Angkor Thom and at Angkor Wat which was originally built in the first half of the 12th century as a Hindu temple and was dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu. However, Angkor Wat transformed into a Buddhist temple by the end of the 12th century and continues to be a center of worship to Buddhism to this day.
This work was acquired from a collection of Southeast Asian artifacts but we do not know its exact history or age. We are simply listing the carving / sculpture as 19th century but it could very well be much older.
Would be a great addition to any Southeast Asian art or artifacts collection or clear eye-catching stand-alone work in about any setting.
