Head of Buddha

The hair and the uṣnīṣa bun are treated in wavy strands running from front to back. There is no trace of the ūrṇā. The face is in the Hellenistic style: aquiline nose, thin lips, smile-marked corners, prognathic chin. The earlobes, once distended, are broken. Idealized, the figure is round; the neck is marked by a fold.
