拍品描述
Expert's Note: Dating to the Lê dynasty (1428-1789), this exceptionally large wooden Buddha stands out even within the established corpus of early Vietnamese Buddhist sculpture. The meditative intensity of the expression is striking—far more austere and inward than the softened, devotional types that dominate later periods. The restrained modeling and remarkable gravity suggest that this figure once occupied a central position on a major temple altar. Sculptures of this scale are rare outside Vietnam; to encounter such an important example in Europe is rather unusual.Seated in dhyānasana on an oval base, the hands lowered in dhyāna mudrā above the lap, wearing loose, voluminous robes opening at the chest. The facial features convey a pronounced contemplative withdrawal, while the sharply defined curls covering the head underscore the spiritual character of the image. Finely carved from several joint sections of wood with numerous layers of lacquer-gilt and black lacquer.Provenance: From a private collection in Zaragoza, Spain, acquired through inheritance. Condition: Very good condition overall, commensurate with age, and presenting exceptionally well. The surface shows ancient wear with traces of natural aging and weathering. There are age cracks, areas of lacquer flaking, and minor losses, some accompanied by old repairs, and discreet touchups. Small sections of the gilding have been refreshed over the centuries. All of this is consistent with this corpus of early Vietnamese Buddhist sculpture carved in wood.
