A VERY LARGE WOOD CARVING OF BODHISATTVA    明 大型木雕觀音菩薩坐像


  • Dimension: Height: 41 in (104.1 cm) Width: 21 in (53.3 cm)

Elegantly seated in dhyanasana on a raised plinth, her left hand raised, wearing long flowing robes and multiple beaded necklaces, face with benevolent expression, crown inset with a small figure of Amitabha Buddha, with traces of pigments left.


此尊觀音菩薩頭帶寶冠,著菩薩裝,飾瓔珞,衣褶紋路婉轉自若繁密而寫實。面相豐腴,雙眼細瞇,神態自然靜穆。右手置於腹前,左手上舉,雙腿結跏趺坐,極富漢地造像特色。因年代久遠,雖有剝落卻更顯蒼古,可見當時色彩之鮮艷。此尊坐像品相甚好,具有很高的藝術收藏價值。
