A LARGE GILT-BRONZE FIGURE OF THE WALKING BUDDHA, SUKHOTHAI STYLE, 14TH - 16TH CENTURYExpert's note:Translated as “Dawn of Happiness,” the Sukhothai Kingdom flourished for roughly two centuries from 1238 to 1438 and is widely regarded as the Thai Golden Age. Having wrested power from the Khmers, the Sukhothai rulers sought to move away from the prevailing Khmer sculptural tradition and develop a new, distinctly Thai aesthetic. With the assistance of Sinhalese Theravada monks, artists and scholars adhered to textual prescriptions preserved in ancient Pali treatises (shastras). Composed as similes, among the Buddha's signs of greatness (mahalakshanas) are a nose “like a parrot's beak,” a chin “like a mango stone,” long and sinuous arms “like the trunk of a young elephant,” and elegant hands “like a lotus bud opening.” Their efforts produced a refined and poetic sculptural type that would become the most iconic image of Thai Buddhist art.Thailand, late Sukhothai Kingdom (1238-1438) to Ayutthaya Kingdom (1351-1767). Finely cast, striding with the right leg slightly raised, his left hand held in vitarka mudra and his right gracefully extended alongside his body, wearing a diaphanous uttarasanga elegantly draped over the left shoulder and flaring downward in a gently undulating hemline. The serene face with downcast eyes below gently arched brows, flanked by elongated earlobes, the hair arranged in tight curls over the ushnisha topped by a flaming siraspata.Provenance: From an old private collection in East Germany. Condition: Fair condition. The statue has suffered extensive heat damage, likely caused by temple fires or warfare, and was carefully restored at an early date using the techniques available at that time. While such repairs would likely be approached differently today, the intervention itself has clearly aged, as evidenced by the corrosion and patina that have developed uniformly over the metal fills, suggesting that the restoration was carried out long ago, possibly centuries ago. Casting irregularities, including a rectangular patch to the shoulder, remain visible. Losses, fatigue cracks, minor warping, scattered nicks and scratches, surface corrosion, and flaking to the gilding. The base plate is a later addition. Overall still displaying remarkably well!Weight: 9,638 g (incl. stand) Dimensions: Height 65.5 cm (excl. stand), 80.5 cm (incl. stand)Mounted on an associated wood stand, probably dating from the earlier 20th century. (2)The 'Walking Buddha' is a striking and iconic Thai invention emerging in bronze sculpture during the 14th century. Known in Sukhothai as cankrama (walking back and forth) it refers to the pacing of Buddha during the third week after Enlightenment. When Shakyamuni renounced his princely life, he dismounted from his horse to become a peripatetic mendicant. Buddhist texts describe his constant wandering from city to city in the course of his teaching, exemplifying the important role walking had upon the Buddha's life.Literature comparison: Sukhothai period bronze images of the walking Buddha, particularly those of large size and quality like the present example, are rare. The majority of the known examples are in museums. Compare a closely related bronze figure of the Walking Buddha, dated to the 14th-15th century, in the collection of the National Museum, Bangkok.
