The Historical Buddha reclines on a jeweled dais surrounded by mourning witnesses. This traditional depiction of his extinction belongs to a newer style, in which the figure is shown from the perspective of the head end. The arms clinging tightly to his body and the square format indicate the remains of an early style.
