Item Details
Description
Presents a unique antique votive figure from the Indo-Himalayan region, dating back to the 18th-19th century or earlier. The figure is crafted from lead, a material less common than bronze, measuring 4 cm in height and 2 cm in width (approximately 1.57 inches by 0.79 inches). It depicts a serene figure sitting on a lotus, which is a symbol commonly associated with purity and spiritual enlightenment in Hinduism and Buddhism. The lotus seat suggests that the figure may represent an important religious deity or enlightened being. Despite its modest size, the figure's weathered texture and the patina speak to its significant age and the devotional use it likely served. This votive figure is an excellent example of the devotional art of the period and would be a meaningful addition to any collection of religious artifacts.
