拍品描述
Expert's note: While our gallery is principally dedicated to offering works of significant age and corresponding historical importance, we occasionally make exceptions for modern creations when they attain an exceptional level of artistic and technical accomplishment and embody a comparable degree of spiritual power, as found in the present example. Particular attention should be given to the extraordinary refinement of the chased and incised ornaments that enliven the garments of the figure and the surface of the throne, the diversity and sophistication of its decorative repertory, and the quality, precision, and abundance of its inlaid decoration.Nepal, 20th century. Finely cast seated in dhyanasana on a lotus pedestal raised upon a stepped throne, the base intricately decorated with a lobed panel enclosing a stylized lotus amid scrolling foliage reserved against a finely ring-punched ground, framed by diapered borders and supported on foliate feet.The Buddha holds an alms bowl in dhyana mudra and is clad in monastic robes draped over the right shoulder, leaving the chest partially exposed, the garments exquisitely incised with scrolling tendrils and foliate motifs.The serene face with heavy-lidded eyes beneath gently arched brows, centered by a turquoise-inlaid urna, with slender nose and full lips set in a subtle smile, flanked by elongated earlobes and surmounted by a domed ushnisha of tightly curled blue-painted locks, crowned by a bud-form jewel finial.The figure backed by a separately cast throne-back lavishly inlaid with turquoise beads, the head haloed by a flaming circular aureole and flanked by striding makaras, lions, and elephants, all further embellished with finely incised scrolling foliage.Provenance: Swiss trade. Acquired from a private estate in Zurich, Switzerland. The base with an old exhibition label, 'SAH-08 Buddha Amitabha'.Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, casting irregularities, expected minor losses to inlays with some possibly replaced, rubbing and minimal losses to gilding, silvering, and pigments, light warping.Weight: 2,326 gDimensions: Height 26.3 cmLiterature comparison:Compare a related earlier gilt-copper alloy figure of the enthroned Buddha, Nepal, dated 1822, in the Museum Five Continents, Munich.
