The Bodhisattva figure is now painted a golden colour, his hands display the gesture of argumentation with the right hand and the gesture as if holding something at the hip with his left. The face of this figure is finely modeled, the cheeks and chin are round and protruding, the face is relatively long. The crown is set on two rows of round, thight curls, the hair falls to either side in multiple small plaits. (Klimburg-Salter, 1997:141, Luczanits 2004:38)
