Buddha Gandhara art, ca. 4th-5th centuries Stucco. H. 19 cm Superb fragment of a Buddha head. Despite being partially missing, this work is a perfect example of the great classical style commonly referred to as "Greco-Buddhist" often associated with the site of Hadda. Traces of polychromy. Provenance: - Former Alain Kotlar collection (Paris) 1980s - Galerie Alexis Renard (Paris) - Acquired from the latter by its current owner.
