Nepal. Finely carved, the skeletal couple striking dynamic poses as they dance and embrace atop a lotus base, facing each other, encircled by flames. They are holding various attributes in their hands and are adorned only with billowing scarves and crowns with vajra finials.

Dimensions: Height 10 cm (incl. base) and 8.7 cm (excl. base)

The jovial dancing skeletal couple is among the most beloved subjects in Tibetan Buddhist art. Chitipati (Shri Shmashana Adhipati) are described in the Secret Essence Wheel Tantra, associated with the root Chakrasamvara Tantra. They are protector deities, particularly against thieves. Their symbol is meant to represent both the eternal dance of death as well as perfect awareness. They are invoked as wrathful deities, benevolent protectors of fierce appearance. The dance of the Citipati is commemorated twice annually in Tibet.

Literature comparison: A larger and slightly later stone plaque, attributed to the 18th century, is in the Nyingjei Lam Collection (Himalayan Art Resources item no. 68326).

Auction result comparison: Compare a closely related but smaller (4.5 cm high) bone plaque of Citipati, dated c. 17th century, at Bonhams Hong Kong in Images of Devotion on 2 October 2018, lot 85, bought-in at an estimate of HKD 250,000-350,000.
