This rare 16th-century Chinese wooden Buddha statue stands at 42.7 cm tall and is a remarkable piece from the Ming Dynasty, reflecting the period's exceptional craftsmanship and devotion. Carved from wood, its dimensions—28.6 cm wide and 21.7 cm deep—demonstrate a meticulous attention to detail that highlights the artistic tradition of Buddhist iconography in China.

The figure is depicted in a serene posture, embodying tranquility and contemplation, which is central to Buddhist practice. Its provenance traces back to an old German private collection, with assembly completed before 1989, enhancing its historical significance. A radiocarbon C14 analysis confirms its dating, ensuring its authenticity.

Chinese Buddhism has a rich history, with the Ming Dynasty being a significant era for the arts, where religion and culture intertwined deeply. The presence of this statue represents the spread of Buddhist philosophy across Asia and its adaptation within Chinese culture. The engraved name of the donor on the lotus base adds a personal touch, connecting contemporary collectors to the past.

This exquisite wooden statue not only serves as a decorative art piece but also as a spiritual reminder of the teachings of Buddha, making it a valuable addition to any collection or meditation space. Its age and historical context invite reflection on the enduring influence of Buddhism in China.
