Description

This remarkable large antique bronze statue of a Buddha from the Ayutthaya period exemplifies the rich artistic and spiritual heritage of Thailand in the 16th century. Standing at an impressive height of 111 cm, this piece carries a brilliant quality and patina indicative of its age and meticulous craftsmanship. The statue is characterized by its serene expression and elegant proportions, reflecting the traditional aesthetics of Thai Buddhism during the flourishing Ayutthaya Kingdom.

The Ayutthaya Kingdom, which existed from the 14th to the 18th centuries, was a center of trade and culture in Southeast Asia. This period saw the emergence of distinctive styles in sculpture, marked by both Hindu and Buddhist influences. The bronze material used in this sculpture not only demonstrates the technical skills of its creators but also highlights the significance of metalwork in religious artifacts during this era.

The provenance of this statue adds to its allure; it was previously part of the Swiss AMA Museum collection in Zurich, acquired through a reputable Bangkok antique shop in 1988. This extraordinary Buddha is a testament to Thailand’s historical legacy and spiritual artistry, making it a unique addition to any collection. Documentation is available upon request, emphasizing its importance and authenticity.
