- Lot Description
Central Asia, Nepal, ca. 18th to 19th century CE. A fine repousse copper panel featuring a Bodhisattva. The panel depicts a standing figure which may be Avalokitesvara, with four raised arms holding attributes in each hand. Avalokitesvara can be either male or female, and this depiction is androgynous.The Bodhisattva wears a flowing skirt, necklace, earrings, headdress, and bracelets. The stupa-shaped plaque has a raised border and is pierced in five spots for attachment. A beautiful devotional piece! Size: 6.875" L x 5.25" W (17.5 cm x 13.3 cm)
Avalokitesvara is a Sanskrit name that literally means "the lord who looks upon the world with compassion." Avalokitesvara is also known as Jana Baha Dyah, Karunamaya, or Seto Machindranath. The embodiment of ultimate compassion, Avalokitesvara took a vow to liberate all sentient beings of the universe from suffering. The term Bodhisattva is derived from the word bodhi which means enlightenment, and a bodhisattva is an enlightened being who foregoes entering paradise in order to assist others to achieve enlightenment or buddhahood. Bodhisattvas are among the most compassionate beings in the universe, devoting themselves to saving the suffering. Traditionally depicted as less austere than Buddhas with graceful postures and elegant garments, this piece is no exception.
