Ca. 618-907 AD A beautiful stone statue of a seated bodhisattva depicted wearing voluminous robes elegantly draped over his wide shoulders and broad, muscular chest and cascading in deep folds over his pendant legs, falling to the sides of his seat and continuing down his back; the remains of his right arm resting on one thigh. Bodhisattvas are common figures in Buddhist literature and art. A bodhisattva is one who seeks awakening (bodhi) hence, an individual on the path to becoming a Buddha. Perhaps the most striking feature of this sandstone fragment is its realistic portrayal of a seated figure revealed beneath drapery. The remains of his developed pectoral muscles appear above his inner garment that crosses from his left shoulder downwards to the right hip. The voluminous outer garment spreads in unevenly spaced pleats and folds that suggest the natural effects of gravity as they fall across the arms, pendant legs and the front edge of the seat supporting him.

Lot 292
Ca. 200-300 AD A schist stone head of a Buddha. He is depicted with wavey hair gathered up in a topknot above a headband. His face characteristically has drooping, half-closed eyes, characteristic of his depictions under the Kushan Dynasty, and he is shown with a slender, wavey moustache above his full lips. His forehead is decorated with the dot called the Urna, which represented the third eye that saw beyond the material limits of the world. The Buddha form was used to depict both the original Buddha Gautama as well as anyone who became a Buddha by achieving Nirvana. The Buddha was not expressed in sculpture in Gandhara before the 1st century AD, before which he was only alluded to with symbols. From this time though, Gandharan art depicted Buddhas with a captivating mix of traditional Buddhist iconography and style, and the naturalism and soft features of Classical art, since this region was greatly influenced by the conquests of Alexander the Great many centuries earlier and the subsequent Greek settlers.

Item comes with a professional historical report from Ancient Report Specialists.Size: L:245mm / W:80mm ; 1.21kgProvenance: Property of a West London gentleman; previously in a collection formed on the UK/International art market in the 1980s.
