Description

A BRONZE FIGURE OF PRAJNAPARAMITA, ANGKOR WAT STYLE, 12TH CENTURY

Khmer Empire, Angkor period. Finely cast, standing in samabhanga atop a rectangular base, the hands raised and bent at the elbows, clutching a lotus and tablet, dressed in a pleated sampot suspended from a charm-embellished belt and a central sash that tapers off in a fishtail shape, the body adorned with jewelry, her face with a serene expression, incised almond-shaped eyes, and smiling lips, flanked by elongated earlobes with pendeloque earrings. The hair piled up into a conical chignon, centered by a diminutive figure of Buddha, behind the flared tiara.

Provenance: From the private collection of Olivier Maréchal, Belgium, acquired in Thailand in 2009. A copy of a provenance statement, written and signed by Olivier Maréchal, dated 20 February 2025, confirming the above, accompanies this lot. Olivier Maréchal (b. 1973) is a noted Belgian collector and dealer specializing in the arts of India, Vietnam, and Thailand. He began his career in the mid-1990s, learning from his father who helped him with his first purchases. He later managed Surya Gallery in Brussels, Belgium.
Condition: Very good condition with expected wear and casting irregularities, scattered small nicks and light surface scratches, tiny dings, small losses, traces of weathering, encrustations. The bronze with a rich, naturally grown, dark patina with malachite encrustations.

Weight: 539 g
Dimensions: Height 19.7 cm

The finely cast details of the face, clothing, and jewelry are all indicative of the Angkor period. Uma was a favored goddess in Khmer Angkor, and while sandstone representations of the goddess abound, bronze devotional figures of Uma are considerably rarer.
