Includes a detached Folio of Krishna Killing the Demon Nikhumba from the Mughal Empire, A statue of Daoist Deity Zenwhu with Two Attendants from China, A figure of the Chicomecoatl Godess from the Aztec Empire, and a golden Face of Bhairava sculpture from Nepal. The website explores different depictions of these religious figures and how that informs religious worship of these figures.
