Description: Khmer Sandstone Temple Relief Fragment, beautifully modeled in traditional \'Bayon\' style, depicting the Deity figure \'Vishnu\' in human form, traveling through the celestial \'svarga\' heaven, comfortably seated in a particularly expressive manner, holding an attribute, with the right hand, surrounded by a sanctuary-like setting. He is shown unclothed above the waist, wearing a short stylized Sampot, folded over a plain belt secured around his hips. He wears an elaborate inter-connected Angkorian style crown, surmounted by a cylindrical-shaped headdress, ornamented in vertical rows of tightly braided hair, bound by decorative bands encircling his head. His indigenous face appears serene, with arched eyebrows set over almond-shaped eyes, a broad nose, thick lips, and elongated earlobes with triangular Angkorian style earring pendants.
The fragmented sandstone was once part of a complex lintel or wall section, originally hand-carved in bas relief, from a solid block of dense sandstone (wacke), modeled with detailing still clearly visible, showing even wear on the entire surface, with weathering consistent with age. The patina is superb, penetrating the surface of the stone in variations of hues and colours, from extended exposure to the natural elements in which it was maintained.
