Javanese carvers made this figure from andesite, a volcanic stone with a visibly pitted grain. The transition between elephant head and human body is carved as a continuous form rather than a joined assembly.
How to use the model
Examine the work from more than one angle.
Use the 3D view to inspect the overall form, then zoom in to compare surface, joins, and tool marks. Lighting controls can make shallow carving and material changes easier to see.
