# Figure of Buddha

Standing Buddha, originally in 'abhaya-mudra'. The major drapery folds are harmoniously ridged and terraced in the two schemes, falling densely below both arms. The neckline is moderately raised and curved, and the backthrow is distinct both on the shoulder and under the left arm against the gathered drapery.
