A RARE AND IMPORTANT BRONZE FIGURE OF BUDDHA, PAGAN PERIODBurma, 11th-12th century. Superbly cast standing on a shaped base, the right arm held in vitarka mudra and his left holding the tip of his sanghati, the flaring robe falling in undulating folds above the feet. The wide face with a serene expression, sensitively modeled and neatly incised with downcast eyes, arched brows, and bow-shaped lips, flanked by pendulous earlobes, the hair arranged in tight curls over the high ushnisha surmounted by a large bud finial.Provenance: The private collection of Michael Phillips. Michael Phillips (born 1943) is an Academy Award-winning film producer. Born in Brooklyn, New York, his parents were Lawrence and Shirley Phillips, noted New York dealers in Asian fine arts, selling to the Met, the LACMA, the Chicago Art Institute, and the British Museum among others. Michael Phillips is a collector of Asian art himself, particularly Indian, Southeast Asian, and Himalayan sculpture. His most important films include The Sting (winning the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1973), Taxi Driver (winning the Palme d'Or at the 1976 Cannes Film Festival), and Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Condition: Very good condition with expected wear, casting irregularities, tiny nicks, small losses, cracks, dents, encrustations. The bronze with a fine, naturally grown, dark patina.Weight: 7.2 kg (incl. stand) Dimensions: Height 43.1 cm (excl. stand), 52.3 cm (incl. stand)Mounted on an associated stand. (2)Expert's note: Burmese sculptural art in the Pagan Empire was strongly influenced by the Pala style, particularly Kurkihar bronzes, reflecting the cultural exchange between the great monasteries of these regions. Compare, for example, the long flaring robe and elegant silhouetted frame of the Sonnery Kurkihar Buddha sold at Bonhams Hong Kong, 3 October 2017, lot 16. Similar details, including the undulating folds of the robe, oval face, and sharp nose, are also exhibited by the great standing Buddhas of Shwezigon Pagoda completed during the reign (1084 to 1112/13) of King Kyansittha of the Pagan dynasty.The Kingdom of Pagan was the first Burmese kingdom to unify the regions that would later constitute modern-day Myanmar. Pagan's 250-year rule over the Irrawaddy valley and its periphery laid the foundation for the ascent of Burmese language and culture, the spread of Bamar ethnicity in Upper Myanmar, and the growth of Theravada Buddhism in Myanmar and in mainland Southeast Asia. The Burmese language and culture gradually became dominant in the upper Irrawaddy valley, eclipsing the Pyu, Mon, and Pali norms by the late 12th century.Theravada Buddhism slowly began to spread to the village level although Tantric, Mahayana, Brahmanic, and animist practices remained heavily entrenched at all social strata. Pagan's rulers built over 10,000 Buddhist temples in the Bagan Archaeological Zone of which over 2,000 remain today. The wealthy donated tax-free land to religious authorities. The kingdom went into decline in the mid-13th century as the continuous growth of tax-free religious wealth by the 1280s had severely affected the crown's ability to retain the loyalty of courtiers and military servicemen. This ushered in a vicious circle of internal disorders and external challenges by the Arakanese, Mons, Mongols, and Shans. Repeated Mongol invasions between 1277 and 1301 toppled the four-century-old kingdom.Literature comparison: Compare a closely related Pagan bronze figure of Buddha, dated to the 12th century, 47.4 cm high, in the Art Institute of Chicago, reference number 2016.106.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Christie's New York, 17 September 1998, lot 170 Price: USD 134,500 or approx.
