Male figure

Fragment of a relief with superimposed scenes, the upper one preserving a standing figure under an arch, the lower one a portion not discernible. The two registers are divided by a projecting cornice (with lozenges?). The base consists of a projecting plain fillet, the cornice of a projecting band decorated with a straight festoon with opposite lanceolate leaves. The surviving scene shows a male figure standing inside a voluted arch with carinated extrados, pendants, and inner concentering arches. The figure is frontal and bending forward, with the left hand resting on the leg. He wears a paridhāna (?). The scene was originally encased by framed columns of the Gandharan-Persepolitan type, of which only the left one is preserved. The remaining portion of the lower register bears the upper part of a dividing element in the form of a Corinthian capital on the right, which originally encased a scene not preserved.
