A GILT-BRONZE FIGURE OF AVALOKITESHVARA, LIAO DYNASTY, CHINA, 907-1125

Two Scientific Analysis Reports:
A technical examination was conducted by Podany Conservation Services, LLC, Los Angeles. The report concludes: “The bronze casting (Figure 1) exhibits no clear evidence of modern origin/manufacture.” A copy of the signed examination report, dated 4 March 2021, accompanies this lot. A metal alloy analysis was conducted by Antiques Analytics, Institute for Scientific Authenticity Testing, Dr. Robert Neunteufel, Germany. The report concludes: “The results of the metal analysis are not in contradiction to a manufacture within the Liao Dynasty.” A copy of the signed examination report, dated 19 May 2023, accompanies this lot.

Superbly cast, seated on a lotus pedestal atop a stepped lobed base, the right hand held in vitarka mudra and the left in avakasha mudra, the bodhisattva clad in cascading loose robes falling in voluminous folds. The serene face with heavy-lidded almond-shaped eyes and lips rendered in a gentle smile, flanked by a pair of pendulous earlobes, all below an elaborate headdress with an incised miniature Amitabha enclosing a high chignon with tresses falling on the shoulders.

Provenance: From the collection of Michael Phillips (*1943), the Academy Award-winning film producer. Born in Brooklyn, New York, his parents were Lawrence and Shirley Phillips, noted New York dealers in Asian fine art, selling to the Met, the LACMA, the Chicago Art Institute, and the British Museum among others. Michael Phillips is a collector of Asian art himself, particularly Indian, Southeast Asian, and Himalayan sculpture. His most important films include The Sting (winning the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1973), Taxi Driver (winning the Palme d’Or at the 1976 Cannes Film Festival), and Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Condition: Good condition with expected wear to gilt and some casting irregularities as expected. Small dents and losses, shallow surface scratches, a very minor old repair to the back. Naturally grown patina overall, with some distinct and solid malachite encrustations. To the base, a small hole drilled for metal sampling.

Weight: 744.1 g
Dimensions: 18.4 cm

Avalokiteshvara is the successor of Buddha Amitabha and will continue to deliver living beings from sufferings when Amitabha attains nirvana. The crown with the miniature Amitabha, like the one shown here, is a key feature of Avalokiteshvara iconography.

This free-seated image is an example of classic Liao style, and the modeling of the body is voluminous. The figure has an oval face, refined features, and a solemn expression. The hair, crown, and jewelry are rich with minute detailing. Sumptuous attire and a lotus throne with thick petals are often seen in Liao dynasty statutes. The torso is elongated, and the meandering design of the drapery forms linear patterns.

Literature comparison:
Compare a closely related smaller figure of Avalokiteshvara in the Museum of East Asian Art, Bath, dated to the Liao dynasty, accession no. BATEA: 277. Also compare a closely related Liao dynasty Avalokiteshvara illustrated in ‘Imprints of Buddha: Buddhist Art in the National Palace Museum Collection’, in the National Palace Museum Taipei, pp. 148-149, no. 62. Compare a related gilt-bronze figure of Liao dynasty Avalokiteshvara seated on a lotus pedestal, in the Palace Museum, Beijing, published in Classics of the Forbidden City: Guanyin in the Collection of The Palace Museum, Beijing, 2012, pl. 26. Also compare related Avalokiteshvara in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, published in Hai-Wai Yi-Chen: Chinese Art in Overseas Collections, Buddhist Sculpture I, Taipei, 1998, pl. 146.
