Footnotes

犍陀羅 二/三世紀 片岩佛陀石碑

Buddha has an elegant gait, walking beneath a pointed archway with two supplicant putti and grape clusters on either side. A panel with similar niches and supporting pillars with projecting brackets is in the British Museum (Zwalf, Gandharan Sculpture, London, 1990, p.227, no.403). Also compare Luczanits, Gandhara, Mainz, 2009, p.325, no.222. Lastly, another panel almost certainly from the same initial monument was sold at Sotheby's, New York, 23 March 1995, lot 265.

Provenance
Private New York Collection by 1990s
