A 10th century sandstone head of a Yaksha.

Cambodia: A 10th century sandstone head of a Yaksha (guardian deity) originally from Banteay Srei temple near Siem Reap, now in the National Museum of Cambodia, Phnom Penh. The National Museum, housed in a red pavilion built in 1918, holds a collection of Khmer art including some of the finest pieces in existence. Exhibits include a 6th century statue of Vishnu, a 9th century statue of Shiva, and the famous sculpted head of Jayavarman VII in meditative pose. Particularly impressive is a damaged bust of a reclining Vishnu which was once part of a massive bronze statue found at the Western Mebon Temple in Angkor.
