An excellent Gandharan stucco head from the Indus Valley, ca. 4th - 5th Century AD. This superbly detailed sculpture is 3 in high, is masterfully carved from stucco and depicts a balding man with wavy hair combed along the temples. He sports a full beard and large mustache. His eyes are deep-set, topped with prominent brows and furrowed forehead. This sculpture clearly shows the Greek stylistic influence on this region. In excellent condition, with strong mineral deposits and remnants of red pigment remaining in the grooves. Mounted on stand. (IV592)
