NER FRÜHER EISENKOPF EINES BUDDHA
Eisen
China
Yuan bis Ming-Dynastie
HÖHE OHNE SOCKEL CA. 21,5 CM, MIT SOCKEL 37,6 CM
Sehr seltener eiserner Kopf. Bestimmend sind der introvertierte, weise lächelnde Gesichtsausdruck sowie der ausgeprägt hohe Ushnisha (die Schädelerhöhung) und die Gestaltung der Haarlocken. Letztere sind charakterhaft groß als Wirbel-Symbole in Form von Blüten dargestellt, kosmische Wirbel, die aber an das buddhistische Rad der Lehre, das Dharmacakra, in China Falun genannt, gemahnen. Da keine Gestik von Händen und dgl. gegeben ist, kann nicht bestimmt sein, um welchen Buddha es sich handelt. Der Kopf ist fest montiert auf einem Sockel aus Edelholz, der quadratisch-konische Form hat und zuoberst um den Hals des Buddha eine Art Schärpe bildet. Weiters auf allen vier Seiten einen Flaschenkürbis Hulu darstellt, Symbol für Langes Leben, da die Unsterblichen in ihm das Lebenselixier mit sich trugen.
