Description

A JAIN COPPER- AND SILVER-INLAID BRASS SHRINE TO PARSHVANATHA, DATED 1297

Western India. Well cast, the central deity seated in dhyanasana on a cushioned throne supported by two addorsed lions, surrounded by seated and standing figures of jinas. The arched throne back with elephant heads flanking a canopy below a kalasha-form finial. Finely executed in openwork and richly inlaid with silver and copper.

Inscriptions: The back with a dedicatory inscription in Devanagari script, dating the present lot to Samvat 1354 (corresponding to 1297).

Provenance: R. M. Collection, Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, Belgium, acquired between 1979 and 2009, thence by descent to his wife Marie-Anne Lefevre in 2023.
Condition: Very good condition with extensive wear, predominantly from centuries of worship within the culture. Few minute nicks, casting flaws, minor warping, occasional light scratches, minor dents, and expected losses to inlays. The bronze with a fine, naturally grown, smooth patina.

Weight: 840 g
Dimensions: Height 16.8 cm

Recognized by the serpent hood above his head, the shrine is dedicated to Parshvanatha, the 23rd Tirthankara. He is one of the earliest Tirthankaras who are acknowledged as historical figures. He was the earliest exponent of Karma philosophy in recorded history. The Jain sources place him between the 9th and 8th centuries BC whereas historians point out that he lived in the 8th or 7th century BC. Gratifyingly plump, he counterbalances the complex array of jubilant jinas, deities, attendants, and animals.
