A citation to The Metropolitan Museum of Art's own online collection catalogue record for this figure, accession 62.265, read directly through the museum's public collection data. Its strength is a directly examined institutional catalogue record from a major encyclopedic museum, naming the accession, culture, period, medium and dimensions. Its limit is that it is a museum object record rather than the specialist scholarship on Chola bronze casting also drawn on elsewhere.
