A gilt copper alloy figure of Vajradhara
Tibet, 15th/16th century
The deity seated in dhyanasana on a double-lotus base with both hands crossed before his chest holding a vajra and ghanta, wearing a beaded dothi and various jewellery inset with hardstones, the face with elongated eyes and a raised urna, the hair highlighted in blue and topped with a conical finial surrounding a foliate tiara.

其宽阔方正的面部特征，以及以褶皱垂幔连接肩部的宝冠处理方式，是14至15世纪西藏中部地区受尼泊尔纽瓦尔工匠影响造像的典型风格。可对比乌尔里希·冯·施罗德《印藏铜像》（香港，1981年）第439页编号117D的无量寿佛像。 16cm (6 2/8in) high

Provenance: the Jeannette Claude Jongen collection of Buddhist Art

The broad square face and treatment of the crown, secured by pleated swags falling to the shoulders is typical of work inspired by Newari craftsmen in the 14th and 15th century in Central Tibet. Compare the figure of Amitayus in U. von Schroeder, Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, Hong Kong, 1981, no.117D, p.439.
