The Torso of “Priest-King” is a low-fired steatite sculpture that was recovered from the ancient Indus Valley Civilization site of Mohenjo-Daro. The figure is 17.5 cm in height and 11 cm in width, and is currently on display at the National Museum in New Delhi, India.
The figure is of a man who is wearing a cloak with circles of varying sizes and colors. The colors used are red, white, and black. The red color of the design circles in the cloak show authority and power. The figure is made of exquisitely styled materials to show he was a wealthy and powerful King.
The face of the figure is in good condition considering its age. The eyes of the figure have been damaged, but they would have originally been inlaid with some kind of material, possibly shell or bone
