Lot 1171 | Budai auch Milefo aus Bronze, braun patiniert. CHINA.
Der Glücksgott trägt auf dem Kopf eine durchbrochen gearbeitete und mit Figuren geschmückte Krone. Das lose gegürtete Gewand zeigt seinen entblösten, runden Bauch. Mit breitem Lachen und gerunzelter Stirn in entspannter Körperhaltung sitzende Darstellung. Das rechte Bein ist locker aufgestellt. Die rechte Hand hält eine Gebetskette und ruht auf dem Knie, mit der linken packt er den Zipfel seines prall mit Almosen gefüllten Sackes. Der auch als "Laughing Buddha" bekannte Gott verkörpert Reichtum, Gelassenheit und Zufriedenheit mit sich und der Welt und steht damit für einige wichtige chinesische Lebensideale. H: 32 cm.
