Ajanta: The Colour and Monochrome Reproductions of the Ajanta Frescoes Based on Photography v2.c8.s17.5

v2.c8.s17.5

On the left side of the fresco, near the bottom, we see the feet of three women, which are adorned with *karās* (anklets). The toes of these figures have been drawn with great sensitiveness and feeling for feminine beauty. In front of the Bodhisattva was the figure of a child, probably making an offering of flowers to him. His tiny feet and the lower border of the *dhotī* only can be seen now.
