拍品描述 翻译
A GRAY SCHIST FRIEZE DEPICTING BUDDHA’S FIRST SERMON AND DEATH (PARINIRVANA), ANCIENT REGION OF GANDHARA, KUSHAN PERIOD
2nd-4th century. Finely carved, the lower register depicts two scenes from the Buddha’s life separated by tall framed pillars. On the right, Buddha is depicted giving his first sermon beneath a canopy, seated in dhyanasana on a pedestal engraved with the dharmachakra, surrounded by disciples. The second frame on the left depicts the death of Buddha, who lies on a raised bed, surrounded by mourners, with the lone figure of Subhadra sitting on the floor in front of the bed with his back turned to the viewer.

Provenance: From a French private collection.
Condition: Very good condition, commensurate with age. Extensive wear, losses, signs of weathering and erosion, chips, scratches, encrustations. The frieze is pierced with two holes for mounting.

Weight: 11.2 kg (incl. stand)
Dimensions: Width 39.7 cm

Mounted on a metal stand. (2)

The upper register depicts Buddha seated in dhyanasana with his hands lowered in dhyana mudra, within an arched niche flanked by two kneeling disciples within similar niches, a pillar between each figure.

Narrative panels were often affixed to the drums of large and small stupas and could thus be read like a storyboard sequentially in the ritual process of circumambulation. Reliefs were also placed in false gables on the front and the mid-section of a stupa. For a structural illustration, see Behrendt, The Art of Gandhara in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 2007, fig. 15, page 33.

According to the Buddhist chronicles, when Buddha died near the city of Kushinagara, in northern India, he broke free from the cycle of rebirths and attained nirvana, absolute release from karmic rebirth. This panel shows the Buddha surrounded by lay and monastic mourners expressing their grief. These reactions are contrasted with the calm of the monk Subhadra, seated facing Buddha’s corpse, who alone comprehends the true meaning of the Buddha’s death. Images of Buddha’s parinirvana based on this Gandharan prototype became important icons for veneration across the Buddhist world in the following centuries.
