About the sculpture

This Buddhist monk wears a robe over one shoulder, and his hair has been shaved. He reverently brings offerings of fruit or flowers to the Buddha. Triads depicting the Buddha with attendants bringing offerings were set up on the base of monuments called stupas, in niches defined by pilasters with Corinthian-style columns indicative of the region's Hellenistic heritage.
