A Tibetan Gilded Bronze Statue Representing a Dharmapala, 19th Century.
This figure represents a powerful figure, possibly a deity or protector in Tibetan Buddhist iconography. The figure is sitting in a dynamic posture with an intense expression, holding a sacred object (likely a ritual item) in one hand and a snake in the other. The distinctive adornment of turquoise and intricate jewellery emphasize its spiritual and powerful presence. This sculpture embodies protection, spiritual strength, and might be associated with a deity known for guarding Buddhist teachings or practitioners.
