Sculpture, Bronze sculpture of Buddha Vitarka Mudra - Patinated - 27 cm - Bronze

The bronze sculpture depicting Buddha in the Vitarka Mudra is a symbolic representation in Buddhist art signifying the transmission of teaching, intellectual discussion, and reasoning. The Vitarka Mudra is a hand gesture where the thumb and index finger touch to form a circle, often associated with the imparting of wisdom. Bronze, as a sculptural medium, allows for detailed work and longevity, frequently favored in religious statuary. Patination adds an aged aesthetic and protective layer to the bronze surface. A 27 cm-height sculpture is a manageable size suited for personal altars or decorative display, emphasizing both spiritual significance and artistic craftsmanship. Such pieces are valued by collectors interested in Eastern philosophy, religious art, and finely wrought bronze figures.
