拍品描述
A GILT-BRONZE FIGURE OF TSONGKHAPA, QING DYNASTY, 18TH CENTURY

Well cast, seated in dhyanasana on a double-lotus plinth with beaded edge, the hands held in dharmachakra mudra, his arms flanked by long lotus stems that come to full bloom at the shoulders, crowned with a peaked hat, and dressed in elaborately chased robes with floral hems.

Provenance: From an old Hungarian private collection. By repute acquired in Mongolia in the 1960s.
Condition: Very condition with minor wear and casting irregularities. Minuscule nicks, tiny scratches, and minor rubbing to guilt.

Weight: 330.9 g
Dimensions: Height 10.2 cm

Tsongkhapa (1357-1419) is widely regarded in Tibet as a second Buddha and the main teacher of the first Dalai Lama, Gendun Drub (1391-1474). An eminent scholar, he reformed the old Kadampa sect, creating the new Gelugpa sect (Yellow Hat), and is the founder of the monasteries Ganden, Drepung, and Sera. He is revered as an emanation of the Buddhist god of wisdom, Manjushri. Although the present bronze has lost one of his attributes, the sword, he is clearly recognizable by the pronounced facial features, for which Tsongkhapa was known, and the remaining attribute, the book.
