Lopburi was a provincial capital during the Khmer empire. At times it experiences periods of independence, but its art form and Buddha images display Khmer influence.</p><p> </p> 79 80 <p align="justify">Buddha images often display a cranial protuberance in the form of three tiered lotus petals. A hair band is featured, and the hair of the Buddha can be straight like human hair. The head is often decorated with a diadem of face frame. Thick lips, a smiling face, prominent earlobes are featured.</p><p> </p> 81 82 <p align="justify">A robe is draped diagonally with a straight edged mantle over the left shoulder, extending to the navel. Often the Buddha image is displayed on a lotus petal base. Seated Naga protected Buddha images in the meditation posture are common. Sometimes the Naga protected Buddha appears with Royal ornaments, and has a more stern facial expression.</span> </p><p> </p> 83 84 <img src="Wat_Benchamabophit/WatBen_2.jpg" alt="Standing Buddha Lopburi style" width="200" height="600" class="img-responsive" loading="lazy"> 85 <div style="clear:left;
