Français : Bouddha debout avec un halo et une mandorle constitués de rayons. Gandhara, vers la fin du 6ème siècle. Laiton, H. 33.7 cm. Quelques petites représentations du Bouddha dédiées à la dévotion personnelle ont survécu au Gandhara. Cette image en métal mêle des éléments que l'on peut rencontrer dans la sculpture en pierre du Gandhara avec le style Gupta du nord de l'Inde. Sa portabilité a été un moyen important pour répandre le style du Gandhara dans d'autres parties de l'Asie.
