Yaksas
Yaksas is a 1928 study by Ananda Coomaraswamy, published in Washington by the Smithsonian Institution through the Freer Gallery of Art, on yaksa figures in Hindu and Buddhist sculpture. The pictures are plain line drawings and photographs of carved reliefs, showing stylised lotus and foliage ornament, a crouching dwarf-like attendant figure, and a row of seated figures in a frieze, which suggest motifs for decorative borders and carved panels.
