19th C. Burmese Brass Seated Buddha w/ Inscription

Item Details

Description

Southeast Asia, Burma (Myanmar), Mandalay period, ca. 1870s CE. A beautiful cast-brass seated depiction of the Buddha, seated in full lotus position with hands making the Bhumisparsha mudra, the "earth witness" gesture. An inscription in Burmese script states the statue was donated by a couple, using honorary "U" and "Daw" titles to indicate respect or elite status, and the date using the Chula Sakarat calendar - which corresponds to approximately the year 1872 CE. Buddha's face is characteristically kind and gentle, with inlaid glass eyes and fragments of glittering glass inlaid along his brow. The underside reveals the hollow casting technique, and much of the interior cavity is filled with stucco or stone material from where the building or architectural element this beautiful statue once rested. Size: 14" L x 9" W x 17.5" H (35.6 cm x 22.9 cm x 44.4 cm)

Mandalay art emphasized realism, with the Buddha given a slender body and detailed clothing; it also is known for its the broad rim framing the face under the hair, which is clear here. The pedestal is low; these figures were made originally to be placed in the center of decorative niches and/or archways, giving the appearance of a throne. This placement would symbolize that Buddha was the Chakravatin, the emperor of the universe. The Bhumisparsha mudra symbolizes the Buddha's moment of his awakening, as he defeated the demon Mara, and claimed the earth as his witness to his enlightenment.
