Finest, Chinese Ming Dynasty Tibetan gilt bronze Bodhisattva Buddha of seated Manjushri-ghosha, the Glorious One with a Melodious Voice, from the set of the 8 bodhisattva heart-sons of the Buddha Shakyamuni. The bodhisattva of wisdom, Manjushri, first arises from the Sutrayana and secondly is a tutelary deity of the Vajrayana tradition. Beautiful, youthful and calm of expression, he has one face and two hands. The hair is piled on the crown of the head with some falling loose across the shoulders. The right hand extended forward rests atop the knee performing the mudra (gesture) of supreme generosity with the palm open and fingers extended. At the heart, delicately held between the fingers of the left hand, a lotus stem rises above the left shoulder supporting a blossom. A jewel crown, hair ribbons, large looped earrings, a choker, short and long necklaces, bracelets and anklets beautifully adorn the body. Draped across the upper arms and lower torso is a silk garment with an inner liner. The lower body is covered with a short skirt. The legs are folded in vajra posture, right over left, above a moon disc and flower blossom seat rising from lotus pond. Extensive trace of gilt and blue pigment on the hair.
The underside with incised Quadra-petal flori-form visvavajra mark and centralized DaiJi.
