介绍（中）	佛陀在贵霜时期首次以人形被描绘。这幅楣板的中心图像是失落合奏中的一个元素，展示了他以当时的典型姿势和格式，坐在他身边的服务员拿着飞拂。他们的右边是弥勒菩萨，站在基座上拿着水瓶，左边是一个加冕的人物，他可能是观世音菩萨。这两位菩萨也是佛陀的传统侍从。右边站着一群男人、女人和一个孩子，他们向一个坐着的人物致敬，右手的双金刚（霹雳权杖）可以暂时识别出他是金刚手菩萨，一个也经常与佛陀联系在一起的神灵。另一种可能性是，这个坐着的人物是因陀罗神，他同样参加佛陀。浮雕另一边的场景更难解码。一群崇拜者，两个拿着苍蝇拂，两侧是一棵树（？）和一个从地上冒出来的大头，两者都可能指的是yakshas（地球精神）。中间的手势孩子也是一个谜。
介绍（英）	The Buddha was portrayed in human form for the first time during the Kushan period. The central image of this frieze, an element from a lost ensemble, shows him in a typical pose and format for the period, seated with attendants at his side holding fly whisks. They are flanked on the right by the Bodhisattva Maitreya, standing on a plinth holding a water bottle, and on the left by a crowned figure who may be the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. These two bodhisattvas are also traditional attendants of the Buddha. Further to the right stand a group of men, women, and a child paying homage to a seated figure, who can be provisionally identified by the double vajra (thunderbolt scepter) in his right hand as the Bodhisattva Vajrapani, a deity also frequently associated with the Buddha. Another possibility is that this seated figure is the god Indra, who similarly attends the Buddha. The scene on the other side of the relief is more difficult to decode. Groups of worshippers, two holding fly whisks, flank a tree (?) and a large head emerging from the ground, both of which may refer to yakshas (earth spirits). The gesturing child at the center is also an enigma.
