Description

This exquisite Old Bronze Nepali Manjushri statue stands at 32.4 cm tall and weighs 3.7 kg. Crafted from bronze and fire gilded with 24k gold, it exemplifies the rich artistic heritage of Nepal, a country renowned for its deep-rooted Buddhist traditions and masterful craftsmanship. The statue dates back to the Middle 20th century, placing it in a period where traditional techniques merged with evolving artistic expressions.

Manjushri is revered as the Bodhisattva of wisdom and is often represented holding a sword in his right hand, symbolizing the cutting through of ignorance and delusion. His serene expression and intricate jewelry reflect not only his divine nature but also the exceptional skill of Nepali artisans, who have preserved these intricate processes over centuries. The lotus base on which he sits signifies purity and enlightenment.

Nepal has a rich history of Buddhist sculpture, influenced by both indigenous beliefs and the arrival of Tibetan Buddhism. This statue not only serves as a spiritual emblem but also as a testament to Nepal's cultural and religious identity, encapsulating the essence of devotion and the pursuit of knowledge. The detailed craftsmanship, combined with the sacred symbolism of Manjushri, makes this statue a significant addition to any collection of religious art.
