Statuette of a woman or heavenly nymph, sculpture collection Rijksmuseum

Tuff stone or tufa was only rarely used for religious images in Java. Smaller, secular figurines were commonly made of terracotta. This exceptional statuette of a lady holding a cloth to her breast is in the style of the East Javanese kingdom of Majapahit. She stands on a round
base reminiscent of the ivory figures from Sri Lanka.
