Item Details
Description
A BRONZE STUPA, Kadampa style, Tibet, 14th Century. The domed base rising from a double-lotus frieze with beaded rim and supporting the stepped harmika. Surmounted by a tapered parasol, canopy and lotus bud finial and the base sealed. This distinct type of stupa, characteristic of the Kadampa Buddhist sect, is associated with the great Indian Buddhist scholar, Atisha, who spread Buddhism throughout the Himalayas in the 11th century. This form is said to be based on a stupa he carried, and remains consistent through the 15th century. With signs of wear. Height--16.5cm. Reference: An identical Stupa is illustrated in NEWARK MUSEUM's "From The Sacred Realm: Treasures of Tibetan Art" on plate no.65.
