                                  原藏家於1981年購入
                                  荷蘭私人收藏

                                  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.
