Description

A SUBLIME SANDSTONE TORSO OF A GODDESS, ANGKOR PERIOD, BAPHUON STYLE, 11TH CENTURY

Khmer Empire. Very finely modeled, standing in samabhanga, wearing a vertically striated sampot secured by a plain belt around the hips, a fishtail-shaped flange falling to the front, the superbly polished naked upper body with well-defined breasts and an incised belly button.

Provenance: From the private collection of Marie Louise Alexienne Vanleew (1929-2024), Belgium, and thence by direct descent to her grandson, the present owner of this lot.
Condition: Very good condition, commensurate with age. Wear, obvious losses, natural fissures, small chips, scattered nicks and scratches, signs of weathering and erosion, encrustations, and old repairs to the chest and back.

Weight: 102 (incl. stand)
Dimensions: Height 115 cm (excl. stand), 123 cm (incl. stand)

With an associated fitted stand. (2)

This piece exemplifies the style of Baphuon female figures with the frontal stance, the ovoid skirt wide at the hips and narrowing around the knees, the sarong in an elevated position at the back and curving down to below the navel and the elegant central pleat. According to Boisselier the highly decorative style of Banteay Srei inspired the development of Baphuon period sculpture, a manner which became more embellished with decorative elements as it reached a zenith during the Angkor Wat period a century later, see Helen Ibbitson Jessup and Thierry Zephir, editors, Sculpture of Angkor and Ancient Cambodia - Millennium of Glory, Washington 1997, page 255.

The modeling of the torso, the curled end of the sarong above the belt and a long central fold recall Banteay Srei sculpture, see Emma C. Bunker and Douglas Latchford, Adoration and Glory, The Golden Age of Khmer Art, Chicago, 2004, page 175, fig. 8.6.
