Wei Tuo Bodhisattva, also known as Skanda, is the Divine Protector of Chinese Buddhism, usually shown in majestic general armor. Here he is standing solidly on a rock, his hands joined together in front of his chest in serving gesture with a smiling face. His armor is intricately designed with patterned details, bands of cloth billowing around his head. The statue is hollow.
