Book Review:
Sir John Marshall's ''The Buddhist Art of Gandhara'' is a classic and foundational study of the Gandharan school of Buddhist art. Marshall, the archaeologist who led the Taxila excavations, explores the birth, growth, and decline of this unique Hellenistic-influenced style. The book shows how Buddhist themes were expressed through Greco-Roman techniques. It remains an essential work for anyone interested in Buddhist art, archaeology, and the cultural history of South Asia.
