Image description

In the wall of a Buddhist temple, dug inside Mogao cave number 45, there is a niche containing three statues made of painted stucco, belonging to Tang dynasty, representing from left to right the young apostle Buddha Ananda, a Bodhisattva and the fair king, the devarajas dressed up like a general while he is crushing an enemy; Mogao caves are one of the most ancient places of worship for Chinese Buddhist culture.
