The Buddha’s facial features display
still elements of North India Gupta
artistic idiom, such as the aquiline
nose and rounded curls covering both
the head and cranial protuberance.
The round facial line is an element that
refects Javanese physiognomy. The
combination gives the head a softer
and more introvert feeling than many
of its Indian counterparts.
