Description
Buddha is shown seated in meditative posture with legs folded in dhyanasana and the hands held in Samadhi mudra, symbolic of the Buddha's entry into a state of profound meditation. The face has an appropriately serene expression, with downcast eyes under delicately arched brows and suggestion of a smile of contentment. The hair is arranged in rows of coils that also cover the ushnisha, the protuberance on the head. The drapery is cast in elegant pleats falling from the shoulders to the lap and pooling across the folded legs. The underside marked by four petals lotus blossom motifs with crossed vajras in the center within floral banded medallion.
