Description

This antique bronze Burmese Buddha statue stands at a height of 34.3 cm, with a width of 17.1 cm and a depth of 11.8 cm, weighing 3.55 kg. Originating from Burma (Myanmar) during the 18th century, this statue embodies the rich cultural heritage and artistic tradition of the region.

The statue features intricate detailing representative of the Ava style, a significant period in Burmese art known for its graceful forms and spiritual depth. The Ava period, roughly spanning the 14th to the 18th centuries, marked a time of robust Buddhist revival, leading to the creation of various religious art forms that reflect devotion and enlightenment.

This particular statue is depicted in the Bhumisparsha pose, where the Buddha reaches down to touch the earth, symbolizing the moment of his enlightenment and the calling upon the earth to witness his enlightenment. This mudra signifies strength and stability, embodying the Buddha's resolution against temptation.

Burma’s history is characterized by a deep-rooted spiritual heritage influenced by Buddhism, which has shaped the nation’s architecture, sculpture, and artistic expressions. This statue serves as a representation of that spiritual journey, encapsulating centuries of artistry, devotion, and the enduring message of peace and enlightenment. The statue is not only a beautiful decorative piece but also a meaningful artifact that connects one to Burmese history and spirituality.
