Basreliëf in de muur aan de oostzijde van de Borobudur Possibly 1873 - 1879

This photograph by Isidore Kinsbergen, taken between 1873 and 1879, showcases a bas-relief sculpture from the Borobudur temple in Java, Indonesia. The intricate carving depicts a scene from Buddhist mythology, likely featuring Buddha and his followers. The relief is divided into two registers, with the upper register showing a procession led by a figure seated on a chariot. The lower register features a seated figure, likely a deity, surrounded by other figures. The meticulous detail and the narrative quality of the sculpture are evident in the photograph. The Borobudur temple, renowned for its extensive collection of Buddhist reliefs, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a major destination for pilgrims and tourists alike.
