Catalogue Note

This compact bronze depicts Green Tara seated on a layered lotus base. Her ornate crown, jewellery and surviving fire-gilt accents give the figure a refined devotional presence, while the natural patina and gentle surface wear reflect its age.

Green Tara is represented as the bodhisattva of active compassion. The carefully modelled ornaments and balanced seated posture are characteristic of Himalayan Buddhist sculpture.

Iconography and Context

Tara is a central bodhisattva of compassion and protection in Himalayan Buddhism. Her poised posture and graceful gestures combine contemplative calm with the idea of compassionate action.

Condition and Display

Surviving gilding, darker recessed areas and wear on raised details create a layered surface. The 15 photographs document the remaining finish, patina, casting and base from multiple viewpoints.
