Item Details
Description
Sui to Tang Dynasty, Ca. AD 700.
A well-carved and very rare white marble figure from the Sui or Tang Dynasty, depicting a standing Bodhisattva on a plinth. The facial features are very detailed, and both the hair and robes of the figure are elaborately jewelled and decorated. This figure is emblematic of the aesthetic of the Sui and Tang dynasties, where a more naturalistic approach to depictions of Buddhist deities was popular. This item comes with a custom-made stand.
Size: 450mm x 110mm; Weight: 3.75kg
Provenance: Private London collection, formerly with Sir Roger Moss, acquired in the 1980s in Hong Kong. This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
