Description
Southeast Asia, Burma (Myanmar), ca. 19th century CE. A serene bronze sculpture of Buddha, depicted with a tranquil countenance of a gentle smile and downcast, enamel-inlaid eyes. Billowing folds of a robe cloak his left shoulder and arm, as long-lobed ears fall to his shoulders, serving of symbols of his casting off of worldly riches. A prominent headband sits just above his fine brow line, surmounted by tight, knob-like coils that comprise his coiffure. Size: 4.4" L x 6.4" W x 12.1" H (11.2 cm x 16.3 cm x 30.7 cm); 17.4" H (44.2 cm) on included custom stand.
