拍品描述
A RARE LACQUERED WOOD FIGURE OF AMIDA NYORAI, HEIAN PERIOD, WITH C14 TEST CONFIRMING THE DATINGJapan, 10th-11th century, Heian period (794-1185)Scientific Analysis Report: The result of a radiocarbon dating test conducted by RCD Lockinge, from a sample taken in August 2023 of the present sculpture’s underside, is consistent with the dating of this lot. A copy of the signed report, dated 5 October 2023, accompanies this lot.Standing in samabhanga atop a lotus dais supported on a hexagonal base with his hands held in raigo-in, wearing a monastic robe opening at the chest and cascading in voluminous folds. His face with a serene expression, downcast eyes and rock crystal byakugo (urna), flanked by pendulous earlobes, and smooth hair over a high domed ushnisha.HEIGHT 43 cmCondition: Good condition with light wear, the fingers and hems of the robe with few tiny chips and touchups, the face with remnants of varnish, the inlay to the ushnisha lost, flaking to lacquer, the peg and feet reattached with remnants of adhesive, the base with remnants of gilt, few chips, a repair and touchups, drilled hole from sample-taking.Provenance: European private collection.During the 10th century, the cult of the Buddha Amida Nyorai, Lord of the Western Paradise, began to assume a central position in the religious life of Japan. He was no longer depicted as part of a vast celestial hierarchy, achieved iconographic preeminence and was typically shown with only a pair or a small group of attendant deities. A single prayer, Namu Amida Butsu (Hail to Amitabha Buddha), if uttered with total sincerity, became the sole requirement for salvation, a simple credo that appealed to courtier and peasant alike.Auction comparison:Compare a related wood sculpture of Amida, dated to the Kamakura period, 13th century, 34 cm high, at Christie’s, Japanese and Korean Art, 21 March 2023, New York, lot 5 (sold for 30,240 USD). Compare a related wood sculpture of Amida Nyorai, dated to the late 12th to 13th century, at Zacke, Fine Japanese Art, 14 June 2024, Vienna, lot 2 (sold for EUR 11,700).
