"Seated Buddha Statue, Vietnamese Art, Late 19th Century"
This bronze statue depicts Buddha seated in a meditative position, with his right hand touching the earth, a gesture known as Bhumisparsha Mudra. This style is characteristic of Buddhist art in Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam, influenced by Thai and Khmer iconography. The elegance of the features, the serene smile and the finesse of the drapery bear witness to a refined artistic period, dating from the end of the 19th century under the Nguyễn dynasty.
