拍品描述
A SANDSTONE TORSO OF UMA, ANGKOR PERIOD, BAPHUON STYLE

Khmer Empire, 11th century. Standing in samabhanga, the elegant female torso modeled with a long pleated flared sampot, knotted at the waist and secured with a fishtail knot, held together at the hips with a patterned belt fastened at the front with a knot.

Provenance: From an old Belgian private collection. Acquired before 1970 and thence by descent in the family.
Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age. Expected wear, signs of weathering and erosion, encrustations, losses, chips, nicks, and scratches.

Weight: 9.3 kg (incl. stand)
Dimensions: Height 50.8 cm (incl. stand) and 44.9 cm (excl. stand)

Mounted on an associated metal stand. (2)

This piece exemplifies the style of Baphuon female figures with the frontal stance, the ovoid skirt wide at the hips and narrowing around the knees, the sampot in an elevated position at the back and curving down to below the navel and the elegant central pleat. According to Boisselier the highly decorative style of Banteay Srei inspired the development of Baphuon period sculpture, a manner which became more embellished with decorative elements as it reached a zenith during the Angkor period a century later, see Helen Ibbitson Jessup and Thierry Zephir, editors, Sculpture of Angkor and Ancient Cambodia - Millennium of Glory, Washington 1997, page 255.

The modeling of the torso, the curled end of the sampot above the belt, and the long central fold certainly recall Banteay Srei sculpture, see Emma C. Bunker and Douglas Latchford, Adoration and Glory, The Golden Age of Khmer Art, Chicago, 2004, page 175, fig. 8.6.
