Gandharan Gold Clad Figural Buddha Bead
Although the Buddha himself never visited Gandhara, with the passage of time the area became a veritable holy land for his followers. Mahayanism, a liberal and progressive school of Buddhism, flourished in Gandhara and laid emphasis among other things, on the transformation of the Buddha into a great mythological, almost eternal, god, and on the deification of future Buddhas as holding providences. In the visual arts, Buddha was permitted for the first time to be represented in human form.
A bead displaying a standing figure of Buddha in repoussé to both faces of a lozenge-shaped body. It is formed as a naked male figure with both hands in the front.
Sheet-gold over bituminous core, from a ritual headdress.
