      Lord Budhha statue in The Mathura Museum and The Mathura School of Art

      inMy Travels, Our Cultural Heritage
      0

      one of the finest representations of Mathura school of art at Mathura govt Museum.
      The Mathura school marks the shift from symbolic to iconographic form.
      This statue of the Buddha in a protection mode was found in the Jamalpur mound near Mathura. It dates to the Gupta period.
      The Mathura school was active from the 2nd century BC to the 12th century AD; its most distinctive contributions were made during the Kushān and Gupta periods (1st–6th century AD).
      This school is a contemporary of the Gandhara and while Gandhara had Hellenistic influences this shows Indian influences and developed earlier depictions of yakshas.
      The Mathura school is most famous for spotted red sandstone images of Lord Buddha
      The Buddha is shown here with broad shoulders, an expanding chest , and the legs planted firmly with feet split apart. The feet apart suggests movement in the posture. It avoids the fleshy depiction of figures.
      And the representation of the drapery closely moulding the body is outstanding.
