Mid-20th Century Indonesian Bronze Sculpture of Manjusri on an Antique Thai Budd
A finely crafted Indonesian bronze sculpture depicting Manjusri, the Bodhisattva of Wisdom in Mahayana Buddhism. The figure features a serene expression, delicately modelled facial features, and ornamental jewellery, seated in a traditional cross-legged posture. Its aged green-brown patina highlights the sculptural details and reflects the character of traditional bronze craftsmanship.
Dating to the mid-20th century, this devotional figure embodies the enduring influence of Buddhist iconography in Indonesia. Manjusri is traditionally associated with wisdom, knowledge, and spiritual insight, making the sculpture a meaningful example of Indonesian Buddhist art.
The bronze figure is presented on an elaborate antique Thai Buddha altar stand, featuring a tiered platform, intricate gilded ornamentation, and an ornate flame-like decorative backrest. Richly detailed with scrolling motifs and traditional architectural elements, the stand reflects the elaborate decorative tradition of Thai Buddhist altar furnishings. Its golden finish creates a striking contrast with the subdued patina of the bronze figure, bringing together two distinct artistic traditions in a distinctive devotional display.
Please note: The bronze sculpture and antique Thai altar stand can be purchased separately.
