Ancient black and white Gandhara-style sculpture of a Bodhisattva, possibly Maitreya, standing with detailed attire and an intricate hairstyle. Jewelry adorns the neck and arms. The stone carving shows a halo or backplate, typical in Buddhist art from the Gandhara region, which is present-day Pakistan and Afghanistan, reflecting a fusion of Greco-Roman artistic influence and Indian craftsmanship. The figure displays a serene expression and holds a vessel in one hand.
