Description

This antique Burmese Buddha statue from the early 20th century stands at an impressive height of 54.5 cm, with a width of 42.5 cm and depth of 28 cm. Handcrafted from wood, it showcases traces of original 24 karat gilding, reflecting the exquisite artistry of its time.

Originating from Burma (now Myanmar), the statue embodies the rich spiritual heritage of Theravada Buddhism that has flourished in the region. The Mandalay style, prominent in the late 19th to early 20th centuries, is characterized by intricate detailing and expressive features, designed to inspire devotion and mindfulness.

This particular statue is depicted in the Bhumisparsha mudra, representing the moment when the Buddha attained enlightenment. It symbolizes the earth witness, where the Buddha calls upon the earth to bear witness to his enlightenment, signifying the triumph over ignorance and the awakening to truth.

Buddhism in Myanmar has deep historical roots, with the Mandalay region being a cultural hub for artisans and monks alike. The meticulous craftsmanship of this statue not only illustrates the spiritual significance but also serves as a testament to the skilled artisans of that era, who preserved and propagated Buddhist teachings through their art. This piece not only enriches any collection but also serves as a meaningful representation of Burmese cultural and religious identity.
