For a similarly dressed and posed figure in the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, see Ulrich von Schroeder, Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, 1981, pp. 552-553, no. 158E (24.1cm high). Also see the slightly larger example offered in our former San Francisco show rooms, 10 September 2015, lot 8002 as well as lot 57 in our New York sale of 17 September 2014. All, in turn, stand in a long line of images associated with the legendary first image of Buddha made during His lifetime by King Udayana of Kausambi. For a discussion of its evolution from Gandharan prototypes, see Denise Patry Leidy, 'Notes on a Buddha Maitreya sculpture dated 486 in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York,' Oriental Art, vol. LV, no. 3 (2005/6), pp. 22-32.
