The Mahamuni Bronzes
The premises of the Mahamuni Paya in south-west Mandalay, Burma (Myanmar), shelter Khmer bronze statues in Bayon style:
A Dvarapala (guardian, left), larger-than-life, in royal outfit. Gems were inlayed in his eyes. The figure shows features of Shiva, like the frontal eye. And it has this charming 'Smile of Angkor'. It is, beyond the famous fragment of a reclining Vishnu in the National Museum Phnom Penh, the second-biggest known Khmer bronze.
Fragments of two different Dvarapala statues, put together.
Two lion rumps; the heads of the lions are from a later date and style.
A statue of Airavan, the three-headed elephant.
