6-9th C Chinese Bronze Bodhisattva of Compassion from the Tang Dynasty - 9685

About the Item

6-9th C Chinese bronze Bodhisattva of compassion from the Tang Dynasty. This piece has a great face and real finesse in the sculpting. The casting is a quality that is only found on high-quality examples. For example-note the complexity of the ribbons and robes and the expressiveness and sensitivity of the face. The piece is 4.5 inches tall, on the stand, the total height is 5.5 inches tall. Beautiful and elegant. Inventory # 9685 From an old USA collection- from a former US diplomat who spent time living in Asia in the 1960's.
