AnnaGaru Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Central ministry kept it in Delhi....Time to get it to our Andhra where it originated... "KEEP THESE as centerpiece in Amaravati Assembly central hall" These sculpture was unearthed in 1970s during the excavation of a Buddhist stupa at Chandavaram (District, Prakasham) in Andhra Pradesh a third century rock carving worth $8,40,000, bought from an Indian art dealer http://pib.nic.in/newsite/PrintRelease.aspx?relid=162071 http://camd.org.au/indian-work-returned/ I. The statue of Worshippers of the Buddha : (Satavahana, Ist Century BCE to 2nd Century CE, Andhra Pradesh, South India, Lime Stone, size: 96.5x106.7x12.7cm). This architecture piece adorning a stupa (possibly drum slab) is made of limestone. The panel depicts the worship of some of the Buddhist symbol (possibly chakrastambha or Bodhi tree but it is not visible as the piece is damaged at the top) kept on a throne, below which the Buddha-pada are visible. The central objects are flanked by worshipper couples on either sides in standing posture. On both the sides, male worshippers are represented first followed by the female worshippers. The most probable offering objects held in their hands are vases with flower or garlands. This sculpture was unearthed in 1970s during the excavation of a Buddhist stupa at Chandavaram (District, Prakasham) in Andhra Pradesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
