About the Item

Buddha head, Thailand, cast bronze, late 19th – early 20th century (Rattanakosin period), Sukhothai/Ayutthaya style. Elegant votive head with a serene face, half-closed eyes beneath a continuous arch, and a finely hemmed mouth. The hair is rendered in small, very regular hemispherical curls, topped with a conical ushnisha topped with the characteristic flame of the Thai cannon. The elongated earlobes emphasize the classical iconography of the Buddha. Beautiful brownish-green patina punctuated by ancient concretions in the hollows. The piece is the result of a lost-wax casting process. An object of devotion and contemplation, representative of Bangkok's production at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Provenance: European private collection.
