拍品描述
A STONE STELE OF BUDDHA SHAKYAMUNI, NEPAL, CIRCA 14TH CENTURY Powerfully carved, the Buddha stands upon a lotus plinth, his right hand lowered and his left grasping the edge of his robe. He wears a long sanghati falling in broad concentric folds to a finely pleated hem. The serene face with downcast eyes, gently arched brows, aquiline nose, and full lips is flanked by elongated earlobes. The hair is arranged in tight curls rising to the domed ushnisha, surmounted by a cintamani. Behind him are a lobed nimbus and an arched mandorla bordered by beads and flames.
