Asian Lady Figure Beautifully Carved with Great Detail.
Anthropomorphic images of the Buddha, the enlightened being who lived and taught in India sometime between the 6th and 5th centuries B.C., originated in North India and present-day Pakistan and Afghanistan in the 1st century A.D. Over the following centuries, sculptural representation of Buddha and the large pantheon of Buddhist deities became an important artistic tradition in nearly every culture between Afghanistan and Japan.
Today, a wide variety of examples remain from various civilizations, some more valuable than others. ‘Like any other segment of the Asian market, there is a very wide price range, based on quality and rarity.’ ‘In recent years, however, as buyers from Asia have become more involved, the prices for the best works have gone up significantly.’
