Head of a young Donor
Bāgh Gaï - Figure
This character with childlike features laughs happily. The execution is crude. We note the heaviness of the eyelids and the simplistic rendering of the hair, which roughly imitates stylised curls in the shape of shells. Round and separated by gaps, they seem to have been designed for a larger face.
