描述

  • gilt-bronze
with hands held in dhyanamudra, the face with downcast eyes and a meditative expression adorned with an urna on the forehead, the hair tightly curled around the protuberant ushnisha, wearing loose robes well-decorated along the hem with lotus scrolls, draped around the shoulders and open revealing the bare chest with a wan symbol and an inner garment tied at the waist, seated in dhyanasana with dhoti falling over the legs

Condition

Apart from some wear to the gilding to the body, the overall condition is very good. The gilding on the face and chest have been cleaned and reveal a shinier patina.
