Composite photograph of Licchavi caitya insert superimposed on a photograph of a Licchavi caitya. It should be noted that this composite photograph was not assembled with the dimensions of the specific caitya and the figure, and is therefor hypothetical as regards this particular example. However the dimensions of the Pritzker Buddha are entirely consonant with this hypothesis. Note also that, in preparing the composite, the Buddha has been reversed. Caitya photograph courtesy Mary Slusser. Insert Pritzker collection, Chicago.
