19th C. Thai Bangkok Style Gilded Buddha Earth Witness

Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $400**

Southeast Asia, Thailand, Rattanakosin period, ca. 19th century CE. A magnificent gilt brass Buddha seated in half lotus position, atop a three-tiered throne pedestal, with his hands forming the earth witness mudra. This is a classic Bangkok Style (Rattanakosin) rendering, with a tranquil visage, flame-like motifs emerging from the shoulders and ears of the crown, beautiful robe with a floral design, elaborately decorated pedestal, and of course the brilliant gilding. A striking Rattanakosin Buddha possessing undeniable serenity and beauty! Size: 3" L x 1.3" W x 3.75" H (7.6 cm x 3.3 cm x 9.5 cm)

This Buddha possesses the classic elements of Thai artwork from this period when the region was ruled by one of the most powerful kingdoms in its history. The Rattanakosin style is considered the continuation of the Ayutthaya style that rose after the destruction of Ayutthaya in 1767. Wood became less important than it was in the Ayutthaya period, and gilded brass or bronze became the materials of choice.
