The leading authority is FOUCHER, A.—*L'Art gréco-bouddhique du Gandhāra*, Paris, 1905, tome I (Tome II is in preparation). Other valuable works by the same author are:—'Notes sur la géographie ancienne du Gandhāra' (*Bull. de l'École française d'Extrême-Orient*, Hanoi, 1902); 'Les Bas-reliefs du Stūpa de Sikri (Gandhāra)' (*Journal Asiatique*, 1903); and *Étude sur l'Iconographie bouddhique de l'Inde*, Paris, 1900, 1905. The next in importance is GRÜNWEDEL, PROF. A.—*Buddhist Art in India*, translated by Agnes C. Gibson, revised and enlarged by BURGESS, J. (Quaritch, 1901). This indispensable work gives a full bibliography up to the date of publication. See also several articles in MARSHALL, J.—*Annual Reports of Arch. Survey, India*, from 1902-3 to date: and other references in footnotes. Plates Nos. 69-154 in BURGESS, J.—*The Ancient Monuments, Temples and Sculptures of India* (Griggs, 1897), are devoted to the Gandhāra school. Another good set of plates is in the same author's articles entitled 'The Gandhāra Sculptures' (*J. Ind. Art and Industry*, April, July, 1898; Jan. 1900), of which the two earlier were reprinted by Griggs in 1899.
