China: Bronze figure of a Bodhisattva Manjushri sitting on a lion.
A Bodhisattva Manjushri (‘Bodhisattva of wisdom’) cast in bronze. With crown, ornaments and lavish robes, sitting on a mythical lion. In the ‘lalita asana’ pose, with a foot resting on a lotus flower. On a rectangular, simple lotus plinth. The lotus flowers, normally on the right and left shoulders, are broken off (on the right flower there is usually a sword, which cuts the knot of ignorance, whilst the ‘book of wisdom’ rests on the other flower). A detailed bronze sculpture in good condition. Good patina and hardly any age-related damage (except the cracked lotus flowers). Probably Ming Dynasty, 17th/18th century, or earlier. H: 30 cm, W: 17 cm. (ME)
