Item Details
Description
Pakistan/Afghanistan, Gandharan Empire, ca. 2nd to 3rd century CE. A fascinating period of ancient art! While the Greeks "conquered" this part of the ancient world under Alexander the Great four centuries earlier - and soon thereafter abandoned the region - their influence continued for centuries, with pockets today of fair-skinned "Greeks" existing in parts of this region. Gray schist sculpture with Buddha and four attendants on stepped platform, insertion slot for another sculpture along top edge. Size: 6-3/4"W x 4-1/2"H.

Provenance: Ex-private New York City collection.

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.

A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.
