EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century stucco statuette depicts Ehelepola Nilame, the Chief Minister of Kandy in Sri Lanka during the early 1810s. The exact creator of this artwork remains unknown, adding to its mystique and historical allure. The intricately detailed sculpture showcases Ehelepola Nilame in regal attire, wearing a traditional Sri Lankan headdress and holding a scepter in his right hand. His serene expression and noble posture exude an air of authority and wisdom. Ehelepola Nilame served as the Chief Minister under King Sri Wickrama Rajasinhe during a pivotal period in Sri Lankan history. This era was marked by the British colonial influence, which brought significant changes to the island nation. The statuette offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Kandy and the political landscape of the time. This precious artifact is now part of the extensive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the diverse artistic traditions of Asia and the world.
