Seated with his legs crossed on a shaped plinth, his right hand raised in the vitarkamudra holding the stem of a lotus flowering along his arm, his left resting on his lap supporting a manuscript, wearing a pleated mantle covering his body, under garment, his face with serene expression, almond-shaped eyes below slightly arched eyebrows, smiling lips and topped with the specific pointed cap decorated with long lappets, base closed.
From a German private collection, acquired at Nagel around 2000
Few small casting imperfections, very slightly chipped
