拍品描述
The figure seated in dhyanasana on a double lotus base with a thickly beaded lower rim, wearing a loose-fitting robe with the hems richly detailed with zig-zag lines and falling in a U-shape at the feet. His face with downcast eyes below gently arched brows centered by an urna, flanked by pendulous earlobes, the hair arranged in tight curls over the ushnisha topped by a bud-shaped jewel. Provenance: From a private collection in New York, United States; acquired through a private sale in the 1990s. Condition: Good condition with expected age-related wear, primarily from ritual handling within the culture. Minor casting irregularities, rubbing, small dents, and light nicks throughout. Traces of ancient pigment remain. The base has been resealed, showing old soldering marks. The surface has worn to a smooth patina, indicating long-term devotional use and reverence over multiple generations.Weight: 198 g Dimensions: Height 9.7 cmThe current bronze depicts Shakyamuni Buddha in ultimate serenity at the moment of his enlightenment. He sits with his right hand in bhumisparsha mudra, the gesture of calling upon the earth as the witness of his enlightenment. His left hand is gently placed in the meditation posture atop his lap. The Buddha's general proportions, such as the relatively short neck and large head, reflect the stylistic traits associated with the image of Buddha in the Mahabodhi temple at Bodhgaya.Expert's note: This early Tibetan bronze's style evokes Buddhism's Indian origins, imitating the 10th-12th century Pala style. Compare a related Eastern Indian bronze figure of Buddha, dated to the 12th century, 8.1 cm high, sold at Sotheby's Paris, 16 June 2022, lot 120, for EUR 30,240.Literature comparison: Compare a closely related figure of Buddha Shakyamuni, also cast in the Pala style and dated 12th-13th century, in the Jokhang, Lhasa, and illustrated by Ulrich von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculptures in Tibet, vol. 2, 2003, p. 1095, no. 282D.
