Lot 134
A gilded bronze sculpture depicting the lavishly adorned deity seated in a royal Lalitasana posture surrounded by utpala, the flowering branches of blue lotus in both hands, as a symbol of compassion. The figure of Green Tara, also known by the Sanskrit name of Shyamantara or the Tibetan name of Sgrolljiang, is revered as one of the most representative figures of Tibetan Buddhism. Heavenly consort of the Dhyani Buddha, protector of Tibet, she embodies in herself the values of enlightment and compassion. This figure, resting on an oval base in the shape of a lotus corolla, is inspired by 15th-century Tibetan specimen made of bronze or gilded copper and intended for the great Himalayan temples.
