Panel of Brahma

Stūpa drum panel showing the Bath of the newly-born Bodhisattva. The naked infant Bodhisattva has a broad modelled chest, the navel emphasised by a line, genitals, plump legs, anklets and a chignon. Beside and joined to his head are vestiges of two streams of water, one with the mouth of an inverted pot above.
