Green Tara, 14th-15th century CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art. From the sculpture's description on [artsmia.org](https://collections.artsmia.org/art/31183/green-tara-tibet) : *Green Tara is one of the most revered female bodhisattvas, a being who postpones enlightenment to assist others on earth. She is the companion of the Cosmic Buddha Amoghasiddhi and equally transmits his gifts to the worshiper. Remarkable for its size and age, this statue is made from pieces of sheet copper—some now missing—that were hammered, formed, and fastened with rivets. The deity’s right hand, opened in the gift- bestowing gesture, would have rested on her right knee. Her left hand once held the stem of a lotus, which blossomed at her shoulder.* This model has been repaired for Sketchfab sharing - the upper legs are open in the actual sculpture, but closed and textured in this model.
