Burma. Of rectangular form, finely modeled in high relief and covered in green and red glazes, depicting Hanuman standing in a dynamic pose, as he holds the Sanjivani Parvath aloft in his left arm and brandishes a large mace (gada) in his right hand, framed by his long, bushy tail that gracefully curves behind his body.His torso is richly adorned with long necklaces and garlands, complemented by a flowing shawl draped over his shoulders and various beaded armlets and bracelets embellishing his arms. The simian features of his face defined by almond-shaped eyes and a prominent muzzle, surmounted by a distinctive tiered crown.Provenance: Italian trade.Condition: Good condition with some old wear and expected firing irregularities, traces of weathering, small losses. Minor glaze flaking, scattered small chips, light surface scratches.Weight: 2,591 gDimensions: Length 32.5 cmThe motif of Hanuman carrying the Sanjivani Parvat mountain to save Lakshmana is an iconic episode from the Ramayana, the seminal Sanskrit epic of Hindu tradition, and represents one of the most widely recognized narratives of devotion and loyalty toward Prince Rama. In this episode, Lakshmana, Rama's brother, suffers a severe injury during the battle with the demon king Ravana, and only a specific medicinal herb known as Sanjivani can restore him to life. Hanuman, the devoted monkey attendant of Rama, flies to the Himalayas to retrieve the life-saving plant. Unable to identify the herb precisely, he lifts and transports the entire mountain to ensure its timely delivery, demonstrating both extraordinary strength and absolute devotion.This episode appears repeatedly in art and sculpture in Hindu temples throughout India, particularly in the south, where Dravidian temple architecture frequently incorporates pillars, reliefs, and murals narrating scenes from the Ramayana. Hanuman is commonly depicted holding the mountain in one hand as a symbol of heroism and fidelity. Beyond India, the motif appears widely across South and Southeast Asia, adapted within regional versions of the epic, such as the Thai Ramakien, in Khmer temple reliefs, and in traditional Indonesian wayang performance traditions. In each context the image retains its narrative and devotional significance, serving as a powerful emblem of courage, protection, and selfless service.Through long-standing maritime trade networks and cultural exchange linking South Asia with mainland Southeast Asia, stories from the Ramayana entered Burmese literary and performance traditions. In Lower Burma, particularly in the Mon kingdom centered at Bago (historically known as Pegu), these narratives circulated alongside Buddhist literature and courtly culture. The narrative eventually developed into the quintessential Burmese epic known as the Yama Zatdaw, in which the heroic monkey general Hanuman plays a prominent role. Characters and themes from this cycle became familiar elements within the broader visual and narrative culture of the region, reflecting the cosmopolitan environment of the Mon and Burmese courts.Architectural plaques of this type were typically fashioned from prepared clay slabs. Figures in high relief were carefully modeled or molded and applied to the surface. The plaques were then dried, coated with slip, and glazed using lead- and ash-based glazes before being fired in kilns, producing durable and often vividly colored tiles used to decorate religious monuments throughout the region.Literature comparison:Compare a related Pegu glazed pottery tile with two horse-headed figures in high relief, 15th century, 42.5 cm high, in the British Museum, registration number 1892,1108.2.
