Description
Thailand, Rattanakosin Period, late 18th century CE. This is a seated figure of a Buddha, cast bronze, with red lacquer details and heavily gilded. The Buddha has all the classic elements of Thai artwork from this period, one of the most powerful kingdoms in Thai history. Buddha's are shown seated on ornate pedestals and decorated heavily. This particular Buddha wears a beautiful costume with flowered details; he and his throne are studded with tiny jewels. He sits with legs crossed and hands laid in his lap, a serene look on his face. The remains of the pottery mold used to create the hollow figure can be seen inside of the base. Size: 5.1" W x 7.25" H (13 cm x 18.4 cm)
