A stone sculpture of a reclining Buddha is seen in situ in Polonnaruwa, Sri Lanka. The statue is carved into a grey rock face, displaying detailed drapery and serene facial features. The Buddha rests on a stone plinth, also carved from the natural rock. A metal framework covers the area above the statue, possibly for protection or preservation. The background rock shows natural stratification and weathered textures. Vegetation can be seen through the metal structure. A portion of brickwork is visible on the bottom right corner.
