Huge 18th/19th century Bronze Ayutthaya Buddha Statue

Huge and heavy Thai bronze Ayutthaya Buddha, dating back to the 18th/19th century.

The Ayutthaya Buddha is sitting in the Earth Touching, Calling the Earth to Witness, or The victory over (Subduing) Mara position.

He sits with folded legs (right on top of the left). The Ayutthaya Buddha is seated on an interesting representation of a boat.

The boat is decorated with flowing designs. Each side comes up in a stylized point much like the royal boats that paddle on the river Choa Praya in Bangkok during royal river processions.

The statue has some traces of age and a nice patina. No repairs.
