EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable part of a relief depicting the death of Buddha, dating back to the 2nd or 3rd century. Created by the Pakistani School during the Kushan period, this exquisite artwork is currently housed in the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UK. The image captures an intriguing mythological figure from Asian history and religion. The sculpture beautifully portrays Buddha's final moments before his passing, evoking a sense of tranquility and spirituality.

Renowned photographer Stefano Baldini has expertly captured every nuance of this extraordinary artwork through his lens. His talent allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance that lies within these sculptures. This print is more than just an artistic depiction; it represents centuries-old traditions, religious devotion, and cultural heritage.
