Template:Infobox royalty Template:Gupta Empire Kumaragupta II (Gupta script: File:Gupta allahabad ku.jpgFile:Gupta allahabad m.svgFile:Gupta allahabad r.svgFile:Gupta allahabad gu.jpgFile:Gupta allahabad pt.jpg Ku-ma-ra-gu-pta)[1] Kramaditya was an emperor of the Gupta Empire. An image of Gautama Buddha at Sarnath notes that he succeeded Purugupta who was most likely his father. His mother was a beautiful princess named Padmavatigupta (alias Padmavati).[2] He was succeeded by Budhagupta.[3]
Several statues of the standing Buddha, representative of Gupta art, are known from the reign of Kumaragupta II, now in the Sarnath Museum.[4][5]
