About the Item

This antique wooden Burmese monk, hailing from Myanmar and dating back to the 19th century, is a striking testament to the artistry and spiritual heritage of the region. Standing at 13 cm tall, this intricately carved statue demonstrates the exceptional craftsmanship prevalent during this period in Burmese history. The statue is gilded with 24 karat gold, which enhances its visual appeal and symbolizes the enlightenment and purity associated with Buddhist figures. The use of gold leaf in Buddhist art not only signifies sanctity but also reflects the deep devotion of artisans who aspired to create works that inspire reverence and contemplation. The monk's posture, characterized by the Bhumisparsha mudra, conveys a profound sense of stability and grounding. This gesture, known as the "earth-touching" mudra, symbolizes the Buddha's moment of enlightenment, where he called upon the earth to witness his attainment of wisdom. The meditation pose, with legs crossed and hands resting, signifies a deep commitment to spiritual practice and introspection. Burma has a rich history steeped in Buddhism, which began to flourish in the region around the 3rd century. This statue not only embodies the religious and cultural practices of its time but also serves as a timeless artifact, connecting the past to the present, allowing us to appreciate the serene spirituality that defines Burmese artistry.
