Were Buddhist statues of... Buddha specifically painted in any way? Specifically the Medicine Buddha or Bhaisajyaguru. Were sure materials chosen to be painted and other not? Like how sure Greek and Roman Statues were painted at one point? In Tang Dynasty China, statues of the respective buddhas and bodhisattvas were ofttimes "painted" with color lacquer. You may see traces of this lacquer on this Tang-era Buddha: http://popartmachine.com/artwork/MMA-MMA_.AS19.186.R/0/Chinese-Seated-Buddha-Tang-dynasty-(618-907),-ca-650-painting-artwork-print.jpg Buddha statues in other countries, in particular Southeast Asia, tend to have gold leaf applied to the surface, altho a good deal of painting might be done, exceptionally around the face. Most modern statues of the respective buddhas and bodhisattvas tend to be either in bronze, varnished wood or have a good deal of kind of gilt finish, with only the eyes and mouth painted. But there is a lot of variation in this, and a lot of progressed statues are painted. It's very likely that the earliest statues of the Buddha, produced in what is now Afghanistan and Pakistan in the 1st century BCE - 1st century CE were painted, as they were almost based on Greek Hellenistic models. The effigy underneath looks without doubt or question Greek and it's likely any pigment has long-since worn away. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bAiCWrxqjoM/Tb8471xTU4I/AAAAAAAAT2w/08MWn7bFkMA/s1600/Gandhara_Buddha.jpg |
