The head is finely carved with a gentle bow-shaped mouth, straight nose, heavy-lidded eyes, elongated ears, and rippling hair over the wide nimbus, affirming his divinity.Size: L: 410mm / W:260mm ; With stand: 16Kg.Provenance: From the collection of a London gentleman; formerly acquired in early 2000s in France; previously in 1970s European collection.
