Description

This ancient Buddha is an exceptional work in teak wood, carved in the Ayutthaya style but originating from Burma. This statue, which represents the Buddha in a standing position, is a refined example of Burmese Buddhist art influenced by Thai traditions. The Buddha is upright and majestic, with his arms resting alongside his body, symbolizing deep inner peace.

The teak wood, a noble and durable material, has been finely worked to capture the graceful silhouette of the Buddha. Over time, the golden patina that covers the statue has softened, revealing areas where the wood subtly appears through the thin layers of gold. The gilding, once bright, has taken on more mature and complex hues, mixing the patinated gold with dark and worn shades, marking the effects of time and the history of this sacred piece.

The flame above the Buddha’s head, a symbol of enlightenment, is typical of Ayutthaya iconography, but its Burmese interpretation may feature softer lines or special details that reflect local craftsmanship. This flame, although worn, remains a central element, evoking spiritual awakening and eternal wisdom.

The Buddha’s facial features are marked by calm and compassion, with half-closed eyes that seem to meditate in tranquility. The carefully carved folds of the garment fall in elegant, flowing lines, accentuating the statue’s graceful appearance.

This work, with its aged golden patina and delicate details, embodies both the deep spirituality of Buddhism and the fine craftsmanship of Burma, while bearing the influence of the Ayutthaya style. It bears witness to a long history of devotion and veneration throughout the ages, and is a valuable piece for Buddhist art lovers and collectors.
