Abstract
It is considered to be that the iconography of Theravada embodies the real or legendary events of the life of the Buddha Gautama (Gotama). Using the episode of the Bodhisattva (Bodhisatta) meeting with Sotthiya as an example, the article analyzes the stability of the iconographic code that reflects the life of the founder of Buddhism. The development of the episode in Buddhist iconography is traced from the art of Gandhara through the samples of Dvaravati Mons, Burmese Pagan, temple wall paintings of Burma and Siam 17-18 th centuries up to the modern iconography of Myanmar and Thailand.
