Mandalay Buddha, 19th Century

Descriptio Patinated and partially lacquered bronze. Measures 48 cm in height. A standing Buddha figure in a hieratic pose, holding a citron in his right hand, while the broad, undulating folds of his monastic robe fall with remarkable dynamism. The oval face, with its serene expression, is crowned with an ushnisha, highlighted with ochre lacquer, a symbol of spiritual enlightenment. The inlaid eyes generate an intense expressive vivacity that contrasts with the serenity of the whole. The vertical composition and the fluidity of the drapery reflect the characteristic aesthetic of the Kingdom of Mandalay, where Buddhist sculpture achieved great formal refinement during the 19th century. The smooth modeling and elegant proportions convey a profound sense of contemplative calm and spiritual refinement, characteristic of late Burmese art. 48 cm. Lot in international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipment: no import duties apply within the EU. Export permit from the country of origin may be required.
