We just learned about the Kushan Maitreya.
Another work of art in Asia is the Bharhat Stupa, made around 100 BC.
The artwork for this place shows some styles that are a lot like Greek artwork, and also some marks from different types of artists in different areas.
This means the artwork was probably made over several years, with a lot of different people helping.
It was made so long ago and was almost destroyed and buried, so people had to dig it up and try to figure out who made it based on the carvings.
Most of the carvings tell the story of Buddha, a famous wise person from Asia.
