O soše
An inscription fixes Standing Buddha to the year 591; the bronze sculpture is at the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Its donor was a nun from a Nepalese village, as the text on the base records. She probably ordered the image from a workshop in northern India. The robe has no engraved folds across the body, allowing the contours beneath it to remain clear. Ornament is concentrated at the hem, where clusters of scalloped edges ripple around the figure and introduce movement into the otherwise plain garment. On view in gallery 243 Indian and Southeast Asian.
Slovy muzea
This bronze Buddha is exceptional, because it carries an inscription on its base that dates its manufacture to the year 591. According to the inscription, the sculpture was dedicated by a nun who was from a village in Nepal, but she probably commissioned it at a workshop in northern India.
The Buddha's robe on this image has been left plain, without pleat lines to obscure the beauty of the contours of the body. Only the rippling scalloped clusters of the garment’s hem lend some sense of energy and subtle ornament to the composition.
