- Lot Description
Southeast Asia, Thailand, ca. late 19th century CE. A fine brass statue of Buddha depicted in a pose known as paang sai yat - reclining to his right side with his head supported by his right arm. The slender figure of the deity is draped in flowing robes as his left arm lays parallel to his body with his left hand just below his hip. A petite pillow rests below his right arm, which supports his tranquil visage, comprised of slender eyes beneath a straight brow, a wide nose, and bowed lips, all capped by a tightly coiled coiffure and a flaming ushnisha. An urna, representing his third eye, adorns his forehead. Mounted onto a rectangular wooden plinth, his pedestal is elaborately decorated with an openwork design of lions, lotus flowers, and maskettes. A lovely example! Size: 10" L x 3.5" W x 6.125" H (25.4 cm x 8.9 cm x 15.6 cm)
This pose of Buddha is typically referred to as "parinirvana," which literally means "nirvana following death" and is used to show the deity shortly after death. In Thai depictions of Buddha, however, it can instead be referring to the deity during 3 different episodes: parinirvarna, teaching the Rahu Asurin, or sleeping.
