Sculpture depicting a dignitary standing with his arms folded.
He's wearing a loincloth tied on the right side. Rich ornaments consist of a pectoral, large circular earrings and a headdress with a central medallion. His fleshy lips and aquiline nose is prolonged by an ornament that goes up to the top of the forehead. This beautifully crafted and noble character is characteristic of the objects found on the Island of Jaina.
