A SILVER-INLAID BRONZE FIGURE OF TARA

Compare the unusual double necklaces with the lower chain resting heavily atop and cascading between the breasts of the current figure; the beaded and flaming aureole; the low girdle; and the unadorned bangles and anklets with another tenth-century Kashmiri bronze figure of Tara from the Pan-Asian Collection, illustrated by U. von Schroeder in Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, Hong Kong, 1981, p. 129, cat. no. 21E.
