I wonder what the story to this one is. What I can make out is a (young looking) knight drawing his sword from a hiding spot, and a person towards the top left.

The Dambulla caves are the largest preserved cave temple complex in Sri Lanka, dating 1st century BC! The Buddha statues were added in the 12th century.

So one of the things that helped me stay sane (and enjoy!) the birdsite was that there were several #Art bots I followed. #Masterpieces and #ModernArts. #Paintings, #StreetArt, #HistoricalArt, #Sculptures, #Architecture, #ArtMovements etc etc etc
The ones I follow on birdsite aren't obviously on mastodon yet. Could anyone recommend an instance to browse, perhaps? Or recommend bots/users?
