Description
BURMA, KINGDOM OF ARAKAN, LATE 18TH – EARLY 19TH CENTURY
A lacquered wooden sculpture depicting a Buddha seated in vajrasana on a quadrangular base with lotus-shaped decoration; the figure has an expressive face. The head is surmounted by a prominent ushnisha extended by a finial, framed by two stylised flames rising behind the ears. He is dressed in a rich royal costume finely adorned with geometric patterns and jewels. The left hand is in the bhumisparsa mudra (touching the earth), whilst the right hand, now missing, probably held an attribute.
Height: 73 cm
