Tapa Kalān - Figure
The head of this warrior in a Atles-like position is disproportionate, off-centre and set into the shoulders. The round face and the bulging eyes add to its grotesque character. One can see a strap hanging from his shoulder. In his left hand, he holds the scabbard of his sword; in his right hand, he grasps the guard, ready to fight.
