The Hindu God Brahma |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: The last king to build great monuments at the city of Angkor, Jayavarman VII, was a Buddhist. During his reign, sculptors created images that seem more personable, less remote. Hindu gods such as Brahma, the creator, had a place in the religious thought of the time, and, after the king's death, there was a Hindu resurgence. |
