Rare pointing Buddha, halfway up Mandalay Hill, Myanmar — June 2004

The most distinctive characteristic of Mandalay influenced Buddha images (and most of those from all of Myanmar) is the intricately ruffled robe that drapes down the left shoulder. This standing Buddha image is quite unique in that one arm is pointing into the distance. Large, drooping ears balance the head, while a hair band separates the forehead from hair. A small flame protrudes from the head.
