English: Isapur Buddha.
"Another one, which is carved on a railing post or stambha found at Isapur on the other bank of the Jumna, depicts a similar but clumsier figure seated on a tall throne supported by couchant lions and surrounded by four figures identified as the guardians of the four quarters (Fig. 6). The central figure, like that of the Indrasaila relief and Jain ayaga-patas, has no halo but the position of the raised hand resembles that of Aryavati of Amohini's dedication, and folds seem to fall under the left arm, suggesting that it belongs to the period when artists were still working out the conventions for the type. Takata believes these representations of Buddha receiving the homage of gods were inspired by and modelled after those of the ayaga-patas, but the Buddhist figures are distinguished from Jain ones in several ways. Although their torsos have deep navels, the lines passing under their right breasts and up over their left shoulders show they are conceived as swathed in clinging garments. Moreover the feet of Jina figures are merely crossed at the ankles, while Buddhist ones are locked in the full lotus position (padma-asana), the soles being turned outward toward the observer. Nor does their scale necessarily indicate that they were inspired by the Jaina tablets. Indeed the Indrasaila relief must be dated to the period of Kanishka because of its stylistic resemblance to the archaeologically datable torana found at Sonkh."
