Isurumuniya - Isurumuniya

Japanese: イスルムニヤ - いするむにや
Isurumuniya - Isurumuniya

...Buddha statues cannot be traced back to earlier than the 3rd century, and early ones show a clear influence from Indian Andhra art, especially the technique of densely packed folds of embossed lines on tight-fitting clothing, which continued into later times.
