wood gilded,
Vietnam, 19th century,
H: 83 cm
A large gilded and lacquered wood figure of an adorant, standing in a dynamic sweeping pose with his left foot forward and hands raised in anjalimudra, the face youthful and serene with a benevolent smile, his hair delineated in black and tied into a chignon with side plaits. Probably an attendant to a larger temple statue of Buddha
