K.K. II. 0275. n. Three frs. of paper, two of which

within a petal-shaped halo. First (L.) faces to R., kneels
on R. p. knee ; the other knee raised with heel of L. p. foot
resting on ground. It supports by both hands a large vase
with short neck and a broad-lipped cover, held at level
of head. Head-dress of cobras. No features drawn.

a female, facing R., kneeling on R. p. knee, L. knee raised
and L. foot flat on ground. Body bends forward from hips
and head thrown back. Prominent breasts. L. p. hand
raised above head supporting small vase. On head seems
to be a crown of spikes. R. p. hand raised but torn away.
Face without features. Undulating bands float about
figure.

It is seated full face, the R. p. thigh resting on ground and
lower leg tightly flexed. L. p. hand raised supporting large
flower with face. R. p. hand seems to be held at
breast. Face missing.
Of the last figure only the R. p. half is present. It seems
to be the centre figure towards which the others incline ;
it is full face with head inclined to R. p. and has nimbus.
Appears to be seated on a lion with the soles of feet pressed
flat on each other. R. p. hand in Vara-mudrā. Behind
R. p. arm rises a wand with trident head issuing from a skull.
