注脚
尼泊爾 十四世紀 銅鎏金綠度母像Highly revered in Nepal and Tibet, Green Tara, the spiritual counterpart of Avalokiteshvara, is invoked to dispel fear and danger. She is depicted here with a sweet and kind expression. Her physique is beautifully proportioned, with a high, rounded chest typical of the sculptural tradition of the Kathmandu Valley. Whereas many bronzes of Green Tara represent her bare-chested, here she is covered by a diaphanous shawl stippled with patterns. This figure compares favorably to another Green Tara with similar armbands, lotus leaves, and additional belt loosely draped around her waist (Smith & Singer, Sydney, 17 July 2019, lot 33).
