This charming schist relief comes from the art of the Gandh\u0101ra region in northern India. It was with the Gandh\u0101ra school that the iconography of the Buddha in human form was established. The last existence of the historical Buddha as well as his previous lives, the j\u0101taka, are highlighted in the prolific iconography of the Gandh\u0101ra. This work illustrates a unique episode in the life of the historical Buddha, the one of his meeting with the serpent king Apal\u0101la and the king’s conversion to Buddhism. This moment, rarely represented in Gandh\u0101ra art, highlights the Buddha, standing in slight contrapposto. The serpent king Apal\u0101la crouches at his feet, with his hands joined. The style of the characters’ clothing, particularly that of the holy man, testifies to Hellenistic and Roman stylistic influence, particularly in the drapery of the clothes. Thus this piece is a perfect testimony of the Greco-Buddhist art of Gandh\u0101ra that flourished under the patronage of the Ku\u1e63\u0101\u1e47 rulers.<\/p>\n
