Condition
The figure and base comprise three parts (figure, base and lotus base).
The figure is in overall good condition. There are small parts missing: the tip of the ribbon behind the figure's right ear, the tip of the middle strand of hair falling over the figure's left shoulder. There is an original casting flaw to the front of the figure's robe which has been filled it after the casting with a ca. 5,5 x 2,5cm large gilt-bronze patch. The gilding is a rich golden tone.
The lotus base has the two acolyte figures standing on the small lotus flowers flanking the figure missing. There are several casting flaws to the rounded base of the lotus base resulting in holes to the bronze.
The stand has a small part missing at the front as well as one rear corner leg.
