A particularly lovely little Kamakura-jidai Buddha from the Freer Gallery in Washington DC.

I like the demon entrails eating Hindu/Tibetan Goddesses myself when I am in foul mood :-)

NICE one. I think i've seen that one. I"ve been to the Freer many times. That one is the 'Hang on a tic, I've got to sneeze' buddha. :D

I #love# the Freer - (Komokuten (Virupaksa), Guardian of the West, 1185-1333), also known as the Warrior-Accountant, and his brethren of the east, north, and south, are a long time favorite.
