A standing Bodhisattva in a shrine, heavily covered with buff white pigment which is torn off at some places and adhered with mud. The glass body only shows at two points at the back of the figure. The figure is vague, yet it shows an powerful expression, a wider shoulder, one arm lifted and the other hanging down. The clothing of the upper body has several folds.
