Description

A SILVERED BRONZE VOTIVE STELE OF BUDDHA AMITABHA, QING DYNASTY

China, 18th-19th century. Depicting Buddha seated in dhyanasana on a double lotus throne with the hands folded above the lap holding an alms’ bowl, dressed in loose robes falling in pleads, and with a serene expression, all backed by a flaming mandorla.

Provenance: From the private collection of Alan and Simone Hartman, New York. Alan Hartman (1930-2023) was an influential American art dealer, who took over his parents’ antique business in Manhattan and established the legendary Rare Art Gallery on Madison Avenue, with further locations in Dallas and Palm Beach. His wife Simone (née Horowitz) already served as assistant manager of the New York gallery before the couple married in 1975, and together they built a renowned collection for over half a century and became noted art patrons, enriching the collections of important museums including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (which opened the Alan and Simone Hartman Galleries in 2013) as well as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Brooklyn Museum in New York. Alan Hartman has been described as the greatest antiques dealer of our generation, and was widely recognized as a world authority in Chinese jade, bronzes, and Asian works of art.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, manufacturing irregularities, light nicks, small surface scratches, few minute dents.

Weight: 168 g (the stele), 225 g (incl. stand)
Dimensions: Height 8.7 cm (the stele), 11.4 cm (incl. stand)

With a fitted ‘Alan Hartman’ velvet stand. (2)

Such votive steles were made in quantities during the Qing dynasty, particularly under the reign of the Qianlong Emperor. Most extant examples were made in terracotta, and known as tsa tsa; the present figure is distinguished from the countless known examples by being cast in bronze and lavishly silvered.

Literature comparison:
Compare a closely related gilt-bronze votive plaque of Buddha Amitabha, offered at Christie’s New York in September 2008, and illustrated on Himalayan Art Resources, item number 22486.
