Japanese cast bronze statue of a Bodhisattva, 1780-1800

About the Item

Cast bronze statue of a half draped figure of the standing Bodhisattva on a lotus plinth, with a removable flaming nimbus surrounding the head. The figure holds a lotus, the symbol of purity and worldly detachment, in their raised left hand, with the right hand at their side, palm forward in a blessing. The verticality of the figure is softened by a flowing scarf, flaring outward at their feet. The figure is presented with its original patination. Japan, late 18th century.

    Antique map titled 'Carte de L'Empire de la Chine.' Decorative map of the Empire of China, depicting China, Corea ( Korea ), Japan, Tonquin and the Philippine island Lucon. Source unknown, to be determined. Artists and Engravers: Rigobert Bonne (1727-1795 ) was one of the most important cartographers of the late 18th century.
