Thailand, 1732-1932. Cast reclining on a stepped double-lotus base, the head held resting in one hand, the other arm extended along his body, wearing a long flowing monastic robe draped over the left shoulder, the face showing an enlightened expression with almond-shaped eyes over gently arched eyebrows and slender lips, flanked by long earlobes, the hair in tight curls surmounted by a flaming ushnisha.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and casting flaws, extensive wear to gilt, small nicks and light scratches here and there. Provenance: Ex-Collection of The Zelnik István Southeast Asian Gold Museum. Institutional art collection in Belgium, acquired from the above.
