Title

Copied from my talk. Johnbod (talk) 01:53, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Any thoughts on the title of this one? I wouldn't call a figure in high relief a statue, and the BM's online catalogue entry doesn't use the word. Relief of Ambika from Dhar? Sculpture of Ambika from Dhar? Ham II (talk) 20:36, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, perhaps the former - or Ambika relief from Dhar. I don't think one can claim a proper name. I'll copy this to the article talk, in case anyone else wants to comment. Let's continue there. Btw, the Blurton book calls the figure Sarasvati. One of a number of small puzzles - accession date, who the small figure at top left is .... Johnbod (talk) 01:53, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I find Relief of Ambika from Dhar easier to parse than Ambika relief from Dhar, and we usually tend more towards "[type of artwork] of [person/deity represented]", although within Category:Buddha statues that style is nowhere to be found and "[person/deity represented] [type of artwork]" occasionally appears.
