Bronze mit grünlich-bräunlicher Alterspatina. Darstellung eines stehenden Bodhisattva in Tribhanga-Pose, das linke Knie leicht eingeknickt.

Um den Hals hängt eine fein modellierte Kette, die über die Brust bis auf die Oberschenkel reicht. Die fleischige, voluminöse Körperlichkeit der Figur weist auf deutliche Einflüsse aus der indischen Gupta-Periode (320 - 600) hin. Auf modernem Ständer montiert. Höhe ohne Ständer 64 cm.
Provenienz: Aus süddeutscher Privatsammlung, in den 70er - 90er Jahren erworben.
