EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Srivijaya figure of Padmapani, a remarkable gilt bronze sculpture dating back to the 9th century. Created by the Javanese School, this exquisite artwork stands at a height of 7.2 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The figure is depicted standing in Tribhanga posture on a lotus base, exuding grace and elegance. In his right hand, he holds Varadamudra, symbolizing bestowing blessings and granting wishes. The other hand gracefully clasps a delicate lotus flower, representing purity and enlightenment. Dressed in traditional dhoti attire, every detail of this sculpture reflects the rich cultural heritage of Southeast Asia. This masterpiece embodies the essence of Buddhism with its serene expression and spiritual aura. The Srivijaya figure of Padmapani not only serves as an artistic marvel but also carries profound religious significance as it represents Bodhisattva - an enlightened being who compassionately guides others towards enlightenment. Through this mesmerizing image captured by eChristies Images and made available by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and spirituality that flourished during ancient Indonesia's glorious Srivijaya period. It is truly a treasure that allows us to appreciate the artistry and devotion that went into creating such masterpieces from our past.
