 Grey Stone Stele of the Bodhisattva Avalokitesrara

Nepal 17th century height 34cm width 23cm Avalokitesrara, Bodhisattva of Compassion seated on a large single petal lotus base. The right foot resting on a lotus blossom. One hand is raised in the gesture of reassurance and the other displays the gesture of charity. The entire body is draped in a garland of flowers. Two large lotus flowers at the shoulders, a foliate crown, pleated dhoti, beaded necklace and foliate disk-shaped earrings. The face is distinguished by two large staring eyes. As is usual in such reliefs the outline of the aureola is ornamented with flame motif. Mounted.
