As I know, Alexander the Great did not survive for centuries... Those sculptures have two influences, Greekand Bouddist, and were made between the second and the forth century,

[acerb45666555]

all these sculptures have Greek-Macedonian influence. i would say most are Post-Alexandrian works.

[renardroux]

Greco-Buddhism, sometimes spelt Graeco-Buddhism, refers to the cultural syncretism between Hellenistic culture and Buddhism, which developed between the 4th century BCE and the 5th century CE

[qaplatlhinganmaH]

The new syncretic form of Buddhism expanded fully into Eastern Asia soon after these events. The Kushan monk Lokaksema visited the Han Chinese court at Loyang in 178 CE, and worked there for ten years to make the first known translations of Mahayana texts into Chinese. The new faith later spread into Korea and Japan, and was itself at the origin of Zen

Nice video , the choice of the Requiem of Mozart fit perfectly for that;

The art of Gandhara is one of the most beautifull ,to my opinion in the indian subcontinent.

Thank-you
