Basreliëf in de noord muur van de Borobudur Possibly 1873 - 1879

Isidore Kinsbergen, a Dutch photographer, captured this relief sculpture from the Borobudur temple in Java, Indonesia, in the late 19th century. The photograph shows two registers of carvings, each depicting a scene with multiple figures. The upper register features a seated Buddha surrounded by trees, while the lower register showcases figures in elaborate garments and headdresses, likely representing deities or significant figures in Buddhist mythology. This photograph provides a glimpse into the intricate details and religious narratives that adorned the walls of this iconic Buddhist monument.
