"""""""In this particular painting the artist has depicted an event in Buddha’s life also known as The Great Departure that records his renunciation of royal life. The composition is rendered with bold, clearly defined contours filled with colours, articulating the elongated figure riding on a horse and bringing out the corporeality and substance of the forms.
