Dämonische Figur — Geschichte & Fakten

Diese kleine Figur ist in einer aktiven Pose dargestellt, mit dem rechten Knie angezogen und dem rechten Arm über den Körper geschwungen. Der Schnurrbart und der breite Dolch auf seinem Rücken sind Merkmale von Mahakala, dem Türsteher von Shiva, aber er könnte auch der Geist des Büffeldämons in menschlicher Form sein. (Beide Figuren sind an anderer Stelle in dieser Galerie dargestellt.)
