Thogcha with a representation of a human figure;, ; Tibetan Buddhist, Himalayan; human figures; 18th–19th century, Tibet; cult object; height 4.7 cm, width 3.0 cm, A small sculpted object sits against a light gray background, showing a worn figurative relief with a rounded top and a rectangular base. The surface of the object is primarily dark gray to almost black with patches of brownish and ochre wear that highlight shallow carved lines and shapes. The central portion suggests a seated figure within an arched outline, with raised areas that form a head and shoulders and lower raised areas that indicate a body and base. The edges are irregular and smoothed, and the overall texture appears rough and slightly pitted with some subtle reflective sheen on higher points. The visible colors are dark gray, black, brown, and ochre against the pale gray background.
