Ca. 200-300 AD.A schist figure of a standing Buddha, originally depicted in the abhaya mudra, conveys a gesture of fearlessness and protection. The flowing robe adorning the Buddha envelops his body, draping gracefully with an exquisite arrangement of cascading folds. The intricate attention to detail in the robe reflects the skill and artistry of the Gandharan sculptors, capturing the beauty of fabric and texture. Standing barefoot on a plinth, the Buddha is presented with elegance and poise. The plinth itself is adorned with a scene of two Buddha worshippers flanking a central altar with a flickering flame. Kneeling with hands folded in prayer-like gestures, the worshippers emanate a sense of devotion and reverence. The scene is framed by columns on both ends, enhancing its visual appeal and adding a touch of architectural sophistication. Buddha's head is rounded, with the hair pulled up and gathered into a topknot. A large halo serves as a backdrop to the head, further emphasizing the figure's divine aura and enlightened nature. The facial features of the Buddha exhibit a naturalistic approach. The half-closed almond-shaped eyes impart a serene and introspective expression, while the broad nose and slightly smiling lips add a sense of gentle tranquility. The elongated earlobes signify the Buddha's renunciation of worldly attachments and his attainment of spiritual enlightenment. The representations of Buddha in Gandhara art encapsulate the synthesis of various artistic influences, combining elements from Hellenistic, Persian, and Indian traditions. This amalgamation of cultures gave rise to a unique visual language that resonated with the spiritual beliefs of the Gandharan people.

Ca. late 6th century AD (or later).A stone figure of standing bodhisattva. This sculpture commands attention with its mesmerizing presence and intricate detailing. Perched atop a decorative plinth, the figure emanates an aura of tranquility and enlightenment. With downcast eyes, rounded cheeks, and a gentle smile, the bodhisattva exudes a serene countenance, while an elaborate headdress adorns the crown of the head, symbolizing divine wisdom. Both hands are delicately raised, expressing a gesture of reverence and compassion. The figure's body is resplendent with opulence, adorned with cascading chains of beads in various shapes and sizes, gracefully draping around the neck and elegantly crossing behind a circular ornament encircling the navel. The beads then loop back around the figure's back, creating a harmonious flow. The long robe adorning the bodhisattva showcases meticulously sculpted folds, adding a sense of movement and realism to the sculpture. In the Buddhist tradition, the bodhisattva represents an enlightened being who compassionately postpones their own nirvana to assist others in their spiritual journey. The Sui Dynasty, which reigned from 581 to 618 AD, marked a significant period of cultural and artistic development in ancient China, characterized by a synthesis of diverse influences and the flourishing of Buddhism as a prominent religion. This item comes mounted on a custom-made stand. Size: L:250mm / W:120mm ; 5.2kg Provenance: Private London collection, formerly with Sir Roger Moss, acquired in the 1980s in Hong Kong.
