    This gilded bronze Buddha statue, 104 cm high, dates from the Rattanakosin period (1782-1932) in Thailand. Seated in lotus position (Padmasana), hands in meditative mudrā (dhyana mudra), the Buddha's face is peaceful, with deeply incised eyelids and a delicately marked urna in the center of the forehead. His hair in regular curls and slender usnisha add to the sculpture's grace. On the soles of his feet are the 108 auspicious marks (lakshana) and the wheel of Dharma, symbolizing the virtues and the perfect, pure and timeless teaching of the Buddha. This element is frequently found in high-quality images.
    The gilding, though partially faded, reveals the dark verdigris patina of the bronze beneath further vestiges of black lacquer.
    Typical of the art of the Rattanakosin period, also known as Bangkok, this work was probably destined for a temple, for an important religious occasion or offered to accumulate spiritual merit. This act of generosity and devotion was directly in line with the quest to improve karma...
