This standing Hanuman sculpture dramatically depicts the deity in a Prahar Mudra, his long tail arched (damaged) overhead. Though the right hand is damaged and features are minimal, his left fist rests powerfully on his thigh, conveying strength and determination. A defeated demon crawls beneath him. The panel’s left corner is damaged.
