A much finer example of technique, belonging to the older Nepalese school, is the three-headed and six-armed divinity shown in Plate XIX. It probably represents the Buddhist Triad—Manjusri, Avalokiteshvara, and Vajrapâni, corresponding to the Hindu Triad—Brahmâ, Vishnu, and Siva. The modelling and movement of this statuette are superb.
