A BRONZE FIGURE OF MOHINI, PALA PERIOD

Bangladesh, 9th-10th century. Standing in samabhanga on a flat lotus base raised on a plinth from which issues a bovine head, her primary hands holding a pot containing Amirdham and a conch, the secondary arms of the enchantress resting on a chakra (wheel) and a gada (mace), her body richly adorned with beaded jewelry, her serene face with almond-shaped eyes and full lips, the hair tied in a tall chignon and the head surmounted by a crown, all framed by a throneback with foliate terminals and a richly carved mandorla topped by a kalasha. The front of the base incised with an illegible inscription.
