Description

This antique bronze crowned Arakan Buddha, originating from Burma (Myanmar) and dating back to the 14th-15th century, is a remarkable representation of Buddhist artistry and devotion. The statue stands at 22.6 cm in height, with a width of 11.1 cm and a depth of 5.2 cm, and weighs 853 grams, crafted from a high copper content bronze alloy that enhances its aesthetic appeal and durability.

The Arakan style, characteristic of the coastal region of Myanmar, reflects a fusion of local cultural elements with broader Buddhist iconography. Notably, this statue is adorned with a graceful crown, signifying the Buddha's spiritual royalty and enlightenment. The intricate detailing in the sculpture, particularly in the headdress and the lotus pedestal, showcases the craftsmanship of the period, where artisans strived to capture divine serenity and tranquility in their creations.

While the distinct Bhumisparsha mudra, signifying the Earth-touching gesture, is embodied in the statue, it emphasizes the Buddha's attainment of enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. This gesture reflects the moment of Siddhartha Gautama's awakening and serves as a reminder of the importance of grounding oneself in reality and acknowledging the world around us.

Burma's rich cultural and religious history is deeply intertwined with Buddhism, and the scriptural teachings and art have significantly shaped its identity. This piece not only represents a historical artifact but also serves as a timeless symbol of spiritual connection and cultural heritage.
