Description

This special antique bronze Buddha statue, measuring 34.2 cm in height, originates from Burma (Myanmar) and embodies a rich cultural heritage. Crafted in the 15th century, it showcases the artistry of the Toungoo period, marked by its distinctive features and stylistic nuances. This particular piece reflects the historical significance of Buddhism in Burma, where art and spirituality have been intricately intertwined for centuries.

The statue is presented in the Bhumisparsha mudra, a symbolic gesture that represents the moment of Buddha’s enlightenment when he called the earth to witness his awakening. This poses profound implications of stability and grounding, reinforcing the statue's purpose as a spiritual focal point.

With light traces of 24-karat gilding, this exquisite bronze statue also features provenance from a private Belgian collection, adding to its historical charm. Its intricate details and weight of 8.04 kg exemplify the craftsmanship of the time, making it not just a decorative object but also a narrative of cultural significance. As an authentic representation of Burmese artistry and Buddhist symbolism, this statue serves as a striking reminder of the enduring legacy of Buddhism in Southeast Asia.
