Images from this period are noted for the serene and compassionate expression on the face of the Buddha, as well as the graceful, contoured lines of the body. The flame-like projection arising from the top of the head symbolizes the Buddha’s spiritual intensity. This image is exceptionally detailed and well cast with pleasing form and proportion and a rich patina.
