EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Buddha with Naga-Kalika" from Gandhara, dating back to the 2nd century A. D. Crafted in stone, this masterpiece is currently housed at the National Museum of India in Delhi on loan from Mayo College Museum in Ajmer, India. The sculpture depicts Buddha, the great spiritual leader and founder of Buddhism, accompanied by Naga-Kalika. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship bring this ancient scene to life. The artist has expertly captured the serene expression on Buddha's face as he sits cross-legged with his hands resting gently on his lap. Naga-Kalika, a mythical serpent deity often associated with protection and fertility, gracefully coils around Buddha's body. This symbolizes their harmonious relationship and highlights the importance of nature within Buddhist beliefs. The relief sculpture technique used here adds depth and dimension to the artwork. The delicate carving creates a sense of movement as if Buddha is about to impart profound wisdom or engage in deep meditation. This stunning piece not only represents an important period in Asian art but also serves as a powerful reminder of spirituality and enlightenment found within Buddhism. Its vibrant colors further enhance its visual impact, making it an exceptional addition to any collection or exhibition dedicated to fine art from Asia.
