Description
This sculpture probably derived from Greco-Roman prototypes of nude athletes, but here it has probably been transposed into a scene from the boyhood of the Buddha, when it is said that he excelled in all forms of athletics.- ?–1998(John Eskenazi Ltd., London, England, sold to the Cleveland Museum of Art)1998–The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH
