AN IMPORTANT GILDED COPPER GEM-INSET FIGURE OF MAHASRI TARAC.12TH CENTURY BIHAR, EASTERN INDIAThe finely cast and gilded-copper figure wears a diaphanous floral-patterned lower garment, sumptuous jewellery including a necklace, broad bangles, armbands, a belt clasp and anklets all inset with semiprecious stones, a jewelled diadem, a topknot and large hoop earrings. Her hair is worn in a large bun at the right shoulder, with her hands in the teaching gesture (dharmacakra-mudra), the left holding the end of a scarf draped over her forearm and falling to the lotus seat by her left knee. She has two gem-set lotus stems at her side and is seated in the posture of royal ease (rājalīlāsana) on a lotus emerging from scrolling vine and gem-set lotus buds, all supported on a tiered platform with large pearl border. The pedestal is held by serpent kings (nāgarāja) at either side, and an attendant cradling Tara’s pendent right foot with her outstretched hands, with an elephant, lion, and a human figure among scrolling vine at the rear, and a tenon projecting from her back to affix a backplate, (now lost), into two slots cast in the back of the pedestal. The statue is cast in five parts, the figure of Tara together with the upper tier of the lotus pedestal, the lower tier of the lotus pedestal together with the plinth, the attendant figure supporting Tara’s foot, and the two nāgarāja, 1.3kg, 16.5 cm.Provenance: from the collection of Norman Blount (1875-1930). Norman Blount was a jute broker, as well as the joint secretary (with the artist Abanindranath Tagore) of the Indian Society of Oriental Art, which was founded in 1907 in Calcutta, with Lord Kitchener the Society’s President.十二世紀 鎏金度母坐像來源：諾曼·布朗特（1875-1930）收藏。諾曼布朗特曾是一個黃麻經銷商，與藝術家泰戈爾一起擔任了印度東方藝術協會的聯合秘書（1907年於加爾各答成立），而霍雷肖•赫伯特•基奇納元帥(1850-1916)為協會主席。Mahāśrī TārāThe immensely popular goddess of compassion (karuṇā) and transcendental wisdom (prajñā), Tārā is known to intercede in the lives of her faithful and protect them from all manner of harm.Since her first appearance in India around the 7th century, she has assumed many iconographic forms. In this c.12th century sculpture from eastern India, she appears as the exalted (Mahāśrī) Tārā. Both teacher (her right hand assumes the teaching gesture, dharmacakra mudrā) and divine mother, she turns her compassionate gaze downwards to meet that of her devotees. She extends forward her gently cradled right foot, as if preparing to rise from her regal seat (rājalīlāsana) and enter the world. The goddess is closely aligned with nature. Her lotus seat, supported by two serpent kings (nāgarāja), arises within a natural setting. Two verdant lotuses enclose her, their flowers turning inward towards Tārā as if to acknowledge her luminosity. Indeed, the c. 7th century Sanskrit text Mañjuśrīmūlakalpa includes poetic tributes of her in just such terms, “trees, studded with flowers on every branch, abounding with open flowers…their bending boughs…turned towards the goddess Tārā.”Beneath the throne, tendrils arise from the stem of her lotus seat and fill the space with gem-encrusted foliate roundels, enclosing animals (lion and elephant), and human alike. Her seat rises above a stepped platform, finished by a row of large pearl beads. The sculpture was once completed by a (now missing) backplate, secured on a tenon at the back and further secured into two slots below it. Richly gilded and crowned and bejewelled, her lavish adornments include a substantial necklace, upper armlets, bracelets, belt, and anklets, all skilfully inset with multi-coluored gems. Large hoop earrings and a silk skirt with incised hem and floral ornaments also reflect her elevated status and enhance her beauty.This elegant sculpture is remarkable for its refinement, its balanced composition and Tārā’s beautiful countenance, which may be compared with that of the celebrated and contemporaneous Avalokiteśvara from Kurkihār. Gilded sculptures from eastern India are rare. Other outstanding examples include the c.12th century Avalokiteśvara from Kurkihār (25.5 cm.); a c.12th century Tārā in the collection of the Potala, Lhasa (41.5 cm.); and a c.9th century seated bodhisattva in a private collection (20 cm.). The circular tendrils enclosing figures along the base is a motif seen in other eastern Indian medieval sculptures including two 10th-11th century bronze sculptures from Faridpur, Gaya district. The large pearls along the base are also found in a copper alloy sculpture of a c.12th century seated Maitreya in the Ford Collection. Similar seated posture and inset gems can be found in a c.11th-12th century copper alloy sculpture of Padmapāṇi in the Bertie Aschmann Foundation of Tibetan Art at the Rietberg Museum. Tārā’s hair, drawn into a bun just behind her right shoulder, can be seen in other eastern Indian medieval sculptures, including a Tārā in the Potala Collection in Lhasa.The eastern Indian medieval school of art flourished between the eighth and the end of the twelfth centuries. A significant number of eastern Indian medieval sculptures bear inscriptions that include regnal dates of the local Pāla and Sena kings, making it possible to construct a fairly accurate chronology for this regional school. Encompassing the modern Indian states of Bihar, West Bengal and the country of Bangladesh, eastern India was the Buddhist homeland, the region where Śākyamuni Buddha (c.480 – c.400 BCE) became enlightened, expounded his spiritual teachings, and died. Countless devotees from within India and across Asia travelled here to seek authentic Buddhist teachings for over a millennium, until the final Muslim invasions of north India around the turn of the 13th century. Pilgrims studied at the great monastic universities (mahāvihāra) of Nālandā, Odantapurī, and Vikramaśīla, and offered homage at the region’s many temples and shrines. Indeed, works of art were a crucial element in the Buddhist pilgrim’s education in eastern India. A consecrated image was thought to embody the timeless presence of powerful gods. Particular statues were sometimes the destination of pilgrimage. Famous icons were said to speak, walk, give their jewellery to the poor, and above all, to answer the prayers of their devotees. Tibetan pilgrim Dharmasvamin described the main image in the Mahābodhi temple at Bodhgayā as insatiable to behold, such that when “even people with little faith [saw the image, they] felt it impossible not to shed tears.”Jane CaseyAugust 2023Dr Jane Casey is an art historian specializing in Himalayan art. She curated exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and at Casa Asia in Barcelona. Her publications include books and articles on Himalayan painting and sculpture.

His mother was the niece of Ngorchen Kunga Zangpo, the first abbot of Ngor monastery. From the age of thirteen he took novice vows, receiving esoteric teachings of the Eighth and Ninth abbots of Ngor from the age of 20. He was enthroned as the 10th abbot at the age of 38 and served from 1534-1557, recorded as excelling in teaching, debate and writing, demonstrating the classic Buddhist qualities of being learned, virtuous and noble. He had disciples in many distant regions, including Kham, Amdo, U, and Ngari. He did not stay full time at Ngor but travelled to Nalendria and other monasteries to teach. Konchok Lhundrub is remembered as one of the most accomplished and prestigious Ngor abbots, comparable in reputation to Ngor's founder Kunga Zangpo. Kunga Sonam Lhungrub was the eldest of three sons born into a prestigious Sakya family. At the age of nine he went with his father to Ngor monastery where he took monastic views with the twelth abbot of Ngor, Konchok Pelden who gave him his new monastic name Kunga Sonam Lhungrub. in 1594, the abbot of the Sakya monastery of Nalendra selected him to take over the duties of abbot at this monastery. On the passing of the fourteenth abbot of Ngor in 1603 he was installed as his successor and became one of the most important Sakya teachers of his time. During his tenure lasting until 1618 Kunga Sonam Lhungrub commissioned several famous works of art. He passed away in 1642 at the age of seventy two.The Sakya monastery was established in Central Tibet in 1073, with the Ngor Monastery a sub school of the Sakya order established in 1429. Ravigupta is connected with the ancient Buddhist philosophical school of Abhidhamma, a Buddhist teaching that systematically describes the world order, primarily as phenomena of consciousness and nature. Ravigupta is the 12th teacher in the lineage of the school of Abhidharma, which starts with the Buddha Shakyamuni himself. Candragarbha born into the royal family of the Kingdom of Zahor (now Bangladesh) in 982, had a vision of the goddess Tara in childhood and under her influence travelled to another country in search of ta teacher, later in his life he became known as Atishs and 1042 travelled to Tibet where he revived Buddhism. 十七世紀 西藏綠度母及不空成就佛雙修壇城唐卡 來源：諾曼·布朗特（1875-1930）收藏。諾曼布朗特曾是一個黃麻經銷商，與藝術家泰戈爾一起擔任了印度東方藝術協會的聯合秘書（1907年於加爾各答成立），而霍雷肖•赫伯特•基奇納元帥(1850-1916)為協會主席。

He was strongly influenced by the antiquites he studied, restored and he saw while there. Returning to France in 1620, he was appointed ordinary sculptor to Marie de Médicis, for whom he worked on the Luxembourg Palace. He then became Richelieu's favourite sculptor, and was finally commissioned to build the cardinal's tomb at the Sorbonne.It should be noted that Berthelot's most important commissions in Rome came from the Borghese family in the early 1600s, who owned the original antique marble. It is also worth noting that one of his most important commissions while in Rome was for the Borghese family who owned the original antique marble, and that in Berthelot's posthumous inventory it specifically refers to a model of the Borghese Gladiator.The present bronze has close stylistic similarities to other bronzes ascribed to Berthelot, including another composition based on an antique source, a small, a small Diana the Huntress known in at least three versions (Cast in Bronze, loc. cit.). These two figures have the same type of face, with wide eyelids, a strong nose and a small mouth with expressive lips.

UNITED KINGDOM. Elizabeth II, 1952-2022. Silver 5 pounds, 2019. Royal Mint. Proof. The Queen depicted as Una and the Lion was a controversial design issued at a time of great uncertainty. Victoria had only just turned 18 when she became Queen and Empress of the world's leading empire at the time, with dominions scattered around the globe. All eyes were on her to deliver the huge task of leading the empire to future prosperity. The depiction of Victoria as Lady Una, calmly directing the enormous beast by her side, the Lion (representing England), was a clever analogy, using the characters from Edmund Spenser's poem The Faerie Queene (written in 1590). It was the first time in history a British monarch was depicted on a coin as a fictional character.As part of the Great Engravers series the coin offered here has caused equal amounts of admiration and frustration due to the low mintage and low-profile marketing from the Royal Mint. The mintage being just 225 pieces, it was immediately sold out and shortly thereafter coins were selling for multiples of the issue price on the secondary market. The Una and the Lion design is perhaps the most iconic of all British coin designs. The original 5 Pound piece struck for Queen Victoria in 1839 has been one of the best performers of all British investment coins but its performance now eclipsed by its modern version, leaving most collectors with little chance of ever getting one. This will be one to keep for the future.Fifth, crowned head of Queen Elizabeth II right; JC below; ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · FID · DEF · 5 POUNDS ·.
