Bodhgaya (Gaya, Bihar). Indra as Brāhmaṇa Śānti. Top : Gaja-lakṣmī. Mark the free and easy gait of the figure which though spread out in space reveals a clearer understanding of the human figure. The modelling tends to be softer and more sensitive than Barhut, and the linear movement more free and flowing. C. 50 B. C.
