Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

The worshiper (Maha) Moggallana, the arhat is one of the main disciples of Buddha, with whom he is sometimes confused: Although he presents certain laksanas (three folds in the neck, elongated lobes, etc.), he does not have an ushnisha.
The arhat is a figure of primary importance in Theravada Buddhism but he attains enlightenment through a teaching while a Buddha attains it by himself. Even if Moggallana is widely evoked in Mahayana Buddhism, the ideal of the arhat is abandoned in favor of that of the bodhisattva, a more altruistic concept.
Bronze sculpture, Brimanie (Myanmar), Mandalay period around 1900.
Provenance: Estate of the dealer and collector Claude de Marteau.
Sold with certificate of provenance.
H 39 cm x W 24 cm x D 27 cm
