| Description / विवरण | |
| Description / विवरण | A part of the lion’s mouth and the upper portion of what appears to be a female figure standing between the legs of the animal are missing. It is likely that the sculpture, when complete, showed a Lion being fed or watered by a Yaksi. (Cf. Ingholt, Gandharan Art in Pakistan, p. 171, fig. 453,) where the figure is male, judging from the dress. The lion has a heavy wreath around the neck; the upper cloth of the female figure has slipped, baring the back. The work is vigorous, and possesses a considerable sense of volume. |
