John and Karina Stewart Collection
This figure represents Dipankara Buddha, a Buddha of a past age who lived countless aeons before the present world era and, according to Buddhist tradition, foretold the future enlightenment of Shakyamuni Buddha. Since the 17th century, Dipankara has been especially venerated in the Kathmandu Valley as a protector of merchants and a recipient of alms. Under his local name, "Samyak," he is honored in an annual festival, during which images such as this one are carried in procession.
Standing, offering the gesture of reassurance () with his raised right hand, Dipankara is shown wearing a lower garment adorned with clouds. Over this falls a flowing monastic robe with heavy foliate patterning, its folds cascading across the torso. Ornaments all inset with semiprecious stones, further embellish his divine form. The face is masterfully modeled, with full cheeks, deep-set eyes, a straight nose, elongated earlobes, and a subtle smile. Above this serene visage rises a tall crown.
With a cast face and hands and a repousse body and base, this gilt copper alloy figure exemplifies the refined metalworking tradition of Nepal in the 18th century. Compare with a closely related example in Norton Simon Museum of Art, Pasadena (see Pal, , 2003, no. 68, p. 105). Another example was sold at Bonhams, New York, 13 September 2011, lot 1005.
