Object Details

Catalogue Note

Dimensions: H 35.5 × W 25 cm
Weight: 3.7 kg
Material: Bronze
Style: Sino-Tibetan
Period: Early 20th century
Mudra: Bhumisparsha Mudra

A balanced Sino-Tibetan Buddha seated in the earth-touching gesture. The restrained modelling, simple robe and compact lotus base give the image a calm appearance without the heavy ornament of later revival pieces.

The open underside shows irregular traditional casting texture and the bronze has developed dark and green oxidation. These are useful material observations but are not overstated as scientific proof of a narrower date.

Condition

Good older condition with patina, oxidation and normal surface wear.

Iconography and Context

Bhumisparsha Mudra is the earth-touching gesture associated with Shakyamuni calling the earth to witness his awakening. The lowered right hand turns the stable seated image into a direct reference to the moment of Enlightenment.

Condition and Display

The bronze surface shows the tonal variation, patina and raised-detail wear described in the catalogue note. The 10 photographs document the sculpture from multiple angles, including the reverse and base.
