Superb late 19th Thai Bronze Walking Buddha. Large at 23 7/8" tall including integral base. This is almost certainly a revival piece brought about by Rama V (the King and I King) at the end of the 19th century. He loved this form and brought hundreds of large 14/15thC Sukhothai statues from the ancient capital city of Sukhothai to Bangkok, and commissioned and encouraged the making of large numbers of this type to honor the Sukhothai period and its greatest artistic achievement- this form of The Walking Buddha. This is a particularly large and fine example that was cast and finished with great care. It is finer than 99% of its type (search the web and you will see), and took great skill and significant time and care to create. From a US estate, collected by the previous owner in the 1960's. There are some small white spots on the surface. I am leaving as found.
