Notes about the Central Figure
Classification: Deity
Unidentified figure.
The identification of this figure is not established. It is possible that it is Ratnasambhava Buddha especially taking into consideration the three horses supporting the throne. It could be a buddha, bodhisattva or non-standard form of the Sun God Surya. The two hands extended forward both with palms out in this way is unusual.
