AbstractPart of a special section on South Asian art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The writer discusses the sculpture of Thailand and Burma in the 12th and 13th centuries, focusing on the connecting threads of artistic and religious change that flowed through much of Southeast Asia at the time. It was at this time that a form of Theravada or Hinayana Buddhism spread from Burma into Thailand and Cambodia. This Buddhism was, in many ways, shaped in the Pala Empire of northern India. The developments cannot be reduced to a single Indian influence,however,as earlier traditions and foreign participation in the Buddhist culture of northern India must also be considered. The writer compares various sculptures to confirm this hypothesis.
