Asian Sculpture and Fine Objects

Collected over decades, these works speak to a deep respect for Asian spiritual traditions and sculptural mastery. The Professor's Collection Part Two: Asian Sculpture and Fine Objects online auction features an exceptional assembly of bronze, wooden, and ceramic sculptures representing revered figures from Buddhist and Hindu traditions as well as objects from other world religions. From Burmese and Nepalese depictions of the Buddha to Tibetan renditions of Tara, Avalokitesvara, and Tsongkhapa, each piece reveals layers of meaning shaped by ritual, meditation, and cultural devotion. This carefully curated selection also includes Guanyin in both wood and bronze, gilded Bodhisattvas, and dynamic portrayals of Nataraja, the dancing Shiva, offering insight into the diverse iconography across Asia. Whether sculpted in gleaming bronze or carved from aged wood, these objects were collected with scholarly intent and a reverence for their spiritual significance.
