Object Details

Catalogue Note

Dimensions: H 45 × W 16 cm
Weight: 2.2 kg
Material: Bronze with traces of gilt-toned surface
Region: Southeast Asia
Style: Khmer-influenced
Period: 20th century

A slender crowned Devata or celestial temple figure in a Khmer-influenced Southeast Asian style. Rather than representing the historical Buddha, the figure belongs to the broader visual world of sacred attendants and protective beings associated with Buddhist temple environments.

The bronze has an aged dark surface with warmer traces in protected areas. The precise original temple identity is not known, so the listing uses the broader Devata/temple-figure identification.

Condition

Good older condition with patina and surface wear.

Iconography and Context

The composed posture and restrained expression belong to the visual language of Buddhist devotional sculpture. Balance, stillness and clearly readable gestures allow the image to function both as a sacred object and as a focused sculptural presence.

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.
