Description
This Sukhothai style Buddha is depicted in the Earth-Touching posture (Bhumisparsha Mudra), representing the moment of enlightenment when the Buddha called the earth to witness his awakening beneath the Bodhi tree. The gesture symbolizes spiritual resolve, the overcoming of obstacles, and the attainment of wisdom.
The composition reflects the refined proportions and spiritual composure associated with the Sukhothai sculptural tradition, a lineage celebrated for its elegant forms and serene facial expression.
Distinctive elements — including the flame-shaped ushnisha finial, elongated ears, gently arched eyebrows, and balanced seated posture — express the stylistic vocabulary of this tradition.
The bronze surface presents a dark mature tone with devotional traces of applied gold leaf, giving the sculpture a dignified and contemplative character shaped by long-standing reverence.
With a height of 54 cm, the statue offers a substantial and harmonious presence suitable for altar placement, meditation spaces, or contemplative display.
Dimensions: 34 × 22 × 54 cm (L × W × H)
