STATUETTE DU BOUDDHA SHAKYAMUNI EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE DORÉTIBET OU NÉPAL, XIIIE/XIVE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4888 12.7 cm (5 in.) highFootnotes:A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHATIBET OR NEPAL, 13TH/14TH CENTURY西藏或尼泊爾 十三/十四世紀 銅鎏金釋迦牟尼像 Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sWith downward casting eyes in deep meditation and his right hand extended forward in the earth-witnessing gesture (bhumisparsha mudra), this gilt bronze of the Buddha Shakyamuni illustrates the seminal moment of his enlightenment and subsequent triumph over the demon king Mara at Bodh Gaya. In this unique sculpture, the artist cleverly alludes to Shakyamuni's immovable and unbreakable force of will by adding a cushion—or adamantine seat (vajrasana)—inset with semi-precious gemstones cut into the shape of diamonds. Decoration of this type comes from northeast Indian bronzes during the Pala period, with inset patterns comparable to a group of 10th century Tathagatas in the Beijing Palace Museum, published in The Light of the Buddha: Buddhist Sculptures of the Palace Museum and Zhiguan Museum of Fine Art, 2019, pp.168-185, nos. 35-39), as well as another set of four Tathagathas in the Potala Palace, published in von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculptures in Tibet, Vol. I, 2001, pp. 250-9, nos. 78-81). This decoration also appears on the crown band of the Nepalese Tara from the Zimmerman Family Collection, sold at Bonhams, New York, 21 March 2023, lot 513. This awareness of Indian motifs, in addition to the Buddha's wide forehead, broad upper torso, and a fitting to attach a prabhamandala behind the base reflects the skilled hand of a Newari craftsmen from the Early Malla period (1200-1482). However, the Buddha's relatively taller ushnisha topped by a wish-granting jewel (chintamani), the lack of wear to the gilding, and the preference for lapis lazuli and turquoise insets indicate that this bronze was made with a Tibetan patron in mind. As such, given the merging of Indian, Nepalese, and Tibetan styles, it is appropriate to assign this bronze to a Nepalese workshop in Tibet, considering the present lot's striking physique and physiognomy to that of a crowned Buddha image from the Philip Goldman Collection, sold at Sotheby's, New York, 21 March 2002, lot 50. Furthermore, the delicately incised treatment given to each individual lotus petal indicates a possible attribution to Densatil monastery, which was known for incorporating both Indian and Nepalese decorative elements into their lavishly inset gilt bronzes. If so, the figure's smaller scale suggests that it was placed within a private chapel and was made for a high-ranking lama as their personal image. See a Densatil image of Vajravidarana that shares this lotus petal type from the Claude de Marteau Collection, Part I, sold at Bonhams, Paris, 4 October 2022, lot 11.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
TÊTE D'UN BODHISATTVA EN SCHISTE GRISANCIENNE RÉGION DU GANDHARA, VERS IIIE SIÈCLE42 cm (16 1/2 in.) highFootnotes:A GREY SCHIST HEAD OF A BODHISATTVA ANCIENT REGION OF GANDHARA, CIRCA 3RD CENTURY犍陀羅 約三世紀 片岩菩薩首Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sThis sculpture of incredible size depicts the head of a bodhisattva, an awakened being devoted to helping others along their spiritual path. Arising in Gandhara, the popular strain of Mahayana Buddhism advocated for righteous and good deeds as the means of salvation. The bodhisattva ('Enlightened Being') represented this kind of spiritual advancement and salvation, in his ultimate act of voluntarily postponing enlightenment in order to ferry others towards their own liberation.Characterizing the hybridization of the Greco-Roman aesthetic in Gandharan art is the idealized symmetry of his face seamlessly juxtaposed with the naturalistic locks of his curly hair. The heavy-lidded eyes and pupils, which are well-preserved in high relief, convey the Gandharan artist's intent of evoking a calm yet powerful expression through the bodhisattva's watchful, piercing gaze. His ears remain wonderfully modelled with elongated lobes and beaded earrings, recalling his former princely status. His majestic face is framed by thick, voluminous ringlets that part in the middle, spilling over to the sides of the head and behind the ears. A beaded hairband keeps this arrangement in place, forming a domed topknot on the bodhisattva's head. In Gandharan art, this type of chignon is typically attributed with Maitreya, the Buddha of the Future. Beautifully carved from a polished dark stone, this bodhisattva head ranks among one of the largest examples with a topknot to be held in private hands. Its scale and sculptural quality is only rivalled by that of a bodhisattva head in the Peshawar Museum, published in Ingholt, Gandharan Art in Pakistan, 1957, p. 134, no. 286. Three smaller bodhisattva heads share a hairstyle with the present lot, including one sold at Christie's, New York, 21 March 2012, lot 723, another sold at Bonhams, New York, 14 September 2015, and a third sold at Bonhams, New York, 22 March 2022, lot 304. Also compare two bodhisattva statues bearing similar features, one in the Lahore Museum (ibid, p. 132, no. 282) and another in the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra (2006.295).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: WW Lot is located in the Bonhams Warehouse and will only be available for collection from this location.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
