BOROBUDUR, THE HIDDEN FOOT—05

One more time Borobudur. A few panels for you to interpret.


Whatever the poor man did wrong, his due punishment is being beaten up by an old hag.





For easier interpretation we need to know what the headdress signifies and who is wearing it.
Also notice the structure. Is it the artist's rendering of a temple, or a palace?




The next one I have dubbed resisting temptation. Fill it in yourself.






I put this one up to show the leg-strap. Try it out, it is extremely comfortable as the leg in the strap can really relax.

  1. Ha! I like how women are always portrayed as temptresses. Men are just weak.

    The person with the headdress is being worshipped? He's sitting at an alter.
