Lepcha man
Note from Prof. J.K. Bautze, Institute for South Asian Art History, FU Berlin: Samuel Bourne stages the Lepcha Man exactly like a king by placing the foot of the Lepcha Man higher, resting on a stone - similar to the throne bench of a Maharaja. - Exterior shot: Lepcha Man sits on rocky ground, next to him lies a woven carrying basket - what is he holding in his hand?
