All auctions / Sculptures / GANDHARAN STONE STANDING FIGURE


Ca. 2nd - 4th century AD. A finely carved standing figure of Buddha in grey schist, in a frontal pose upon a decorated pedestal. The figure is shown richly attired, wearing a long, pleated lower garment secured at the waist and a draped mantle falling over one shoulder. The torso is adorned with elaborate necklaces and other jewellery, while the hair is arranged in a high topknot. The Bodhisattva is flanked by two smaller attendant figures. The treatment of the drapery, naturalistic modelling of the body and elaborate ornamentation are characteristic of the Graeco-Buddhist sculptural tradition of ancient Gandhara, which combined Hellenistic and Roman artistic conventions with Buddhist iconography. Size: 430mm x 245mm; Weight: 8.84kg Provenance: From a private UK collection; formerly in the S.S. collection, assembled from the 1970s onwards. This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
