A simple seated Buddha composition with an intuitive twist by the artisan. From the blooming padma (lotus) flower that forms the throne of the spiritual king, emerges an aureole the shape of the Buddha’s right hand raised in blessing.
All four fingers and thumb are carved in perfect proportion, the detail of the digital creases adding to the lifelike finesse of the sculpture. If you are a devotee with a taste for the eclectic, this is the kind of murti you cannot go wrong with.
In the foreground sits the solemn Gautama Buddha, as if carved out from the gracious palm. The characteristics of His personal iconography are to be noted - the flawless padmasana, the mendicact’s bowl, the robe and the kundalas and the mass of curls on the crown of His head, and the wing-like half-shut eyes. Characterised by superb attention to detail despite the scale and the concept, this Buddha composition would be an unusual addition to your space.
