Sculpture3073/2 a-d

Ceramic multi-story tower in 4 pieces, raw terracotta inside with faded green glaze on the exterior. Each part of the tower balances on top of the one below. The roof and top level of the tower are part 'a.' A small structure sits inside a square balcony, with three figures attached to the ledge in front. The roof is slanted and ridged, flower motifs at each corner, and a bird with wings spread at the peak. Part ‘b’ is larger and contains levels 2 and 3 of the tower, as well as a similar roof, flower motifs and figures on the ledge as part a. Part ‘c’ holds the ground floor level, which has a single partially open doorway. Grilled windows sit high on the structure on three sides. Atop this is a large square balcony with 5 figures attached to the ledge, facing forward. Part ‘d’ is the courtyard of the building, the base surrounded by high walls decorated on top with two rows of regularly spaced indents. The door stands open, with two roofed towers above it to each side.

Figure3073/1

Ceramic figure of the deity Lokapala standing on a cow. The figure wears full armour with dragon heads at the shoulders, a robe that flows out from under a waistcoat, long pants, and boots. His left hand rests on his hip, while the right is extended to hold a weapon (piece missing). Lokapala is smiling fiercely, with a thick brow above dark eyes. His hair is piled atop his head in a simple but decorative arrangement. The cow below his feet is small, lying on the ground in a resting posture with legs folded beneath, head raised, eyes open. The base of the sculpture mimics rough earthen terrain.
