STATUETTE DE LOKESHVARA PADMAPANI EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE KASHMIR, CIRCA XIE SIÈCLESTATUETTE DE LOKESHVARA PADMAPANI EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVREKASHMIR, CIRCA XIE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4862 11.5 cm (4 1/2 in.) high A BRASS FIGURE OF LOKESHVARA PADMAPANIKASHMIR, CIRCA 11TH CENTURY克什米爾 約十一世紀 蓮華手觀音銅像Provenance: With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sBearing a lotus flower in one hand, this lissome figure can be recognized as Padmapani Lokeshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Indeed, one cannot help but notice the dexterous and tensile maneuvering of the lotus flower's stem as it shoots skyward and snakes behind his hand before adjoining the flaming mandorla. Certain details—such as long, narrow legs and a foot teetering over the edge of the platform—are artistic conventions that found favor across the Western Himalayas and flourished between the 10th and 11th centuries. This Padmapani's lower garment, large beaded necklace, small plump face, and flaming mandorla are all hallmarks of bronzes from Kashmir, of which others are published in von Schroeder, Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, 1981, pp. 123-4, nos. 18F & 19B, and one standing Avalokiteshvara is in the Walters Art Museum (54.3027).
