Description
The style of this serene face with its full lips and almost closed eyes is based on the last phase of Khmer art from the Khmer capital of ANgkor in Cambodia. In the 11th and 12th centuries, Thailand had been part of the Khmer empire. By the time this Buddha was created, Thailand had freed itself from the Khmer, but Cambodian art remained influential.
