TIBETO-CHINESE, 18TH CENTURY 6 1/8 in. (15.5 cm.) high
Acquired from Stuart Perrin, New York, 8 April 1988.
This fine gilt bronze image of Buddha Shakyamuni, turning the wheel of the dharma, is a typical representation from the Buddhist Qing Dynasty. Its Chinese origin is revealed through the dark tone of the alloy, the oval-like draping of the robe atop each of the Buddha’s knees, the visible and neatly-pleated antaravasaka or lower robe, and the incised lotus petals on the backside of the base, where the widely-cast petals end.
