A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF BUDDHA TIBET, 13TH/14TH CENTURYA GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF BUDDHATIBET, 13TH/14TH CENTURYHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4738 7 cm (2 3/4 in.) high西藏 十三/十四世紀 銅鎏金佛陀像This portable representation of the historical Buddha's moment of enlightenment as one of quiet realization shows centuries of personal devotion and an originally undisturbed base plate. Many of the bronze's visual traits, including its facial features, snail-shell curls, close-fitting monastic robe, and satisfyingly plump lotus petals borrow from the Pala Indian tradition, at a time when the casting of Buddhist bronzes proliferated early in Tibet. Compare the face and lotus pedestal to that of a similarly-sized image of Avalokiteshvara in the John and Berthe Ford Collection (Denwood & Singer, Tibetan Art, Toward a Definition of Style, 1997, p. 77, no. 57), as well as one image sold at Bonhams, Hong Kong, 7 October 2019, lot 928.
