Seated in dhyanasana with his hands in mudra, the finely cast figure with flowing robes incised with elaborate floral scroll pattern, over a well-modelled torso leaving the chest and part arm bare, his face with contemplative expression, arched eyebrows in relief, delicately-lidded eyes downcast in meditation, and slightly-smiling bow-shaped mouth, his hair arranged in rows of spiral curls, the domed usnisa surmounted by a lotus-bud cintamani, all supported on a rosewood carved double lotus base. Yuan Dynasty period.
