Tibet, 18th cent.

Seated in vajrasana on a lotus base with his right hand lowered in bhumisparshamudra while the left is raised holding a section of his mantle that is falling in wide concentric pleats down his body, his face is displaying a serene expression with downcast eyes below arched eyebrows that run into his nose-bridge, elongated earlobes, his curled hair continuing into the ushnisha and topped with a lotus-bud, unsealed.
From an important Southern German private collection, collected since the 1960s - Very minor wear and very slightly chipped
