拍品描述：
TIBET, 18TH CENTURY
Himalayan Art Resources item no. 2846
4 1/4 in. (10.8 cm) high
銅鎏金阿秘特尊者像
西藏 十八世紀
Private New Jersey Collection, acquired early 2000s
This sculpture portrays Arhat Abheda holding an enlightenment stupa, his identifying attribute, between his palms. He represents one of the first disciples of Buddha Shakyamuni, known as arhats, a Sanskrit term meaning "one who has conquered one's enemy". He is part of a consortium of enlightened beings who have transcended the cycle of rebirth. Such sculptures were often produced in sets.
Like many sets of the 18th century, Abheda appears on a cushioned base, and sits in a relaxed posture. He wears patchwork robes in reference to his direct relationship with Buddha Shakyamuni, who was likely included among the set. Other comparative examples of arhats seated on squared cushions, wearing flowing robes, and of a similar scale include a sculpture of Arhat Kalika (Bonhams, New York, 14 March 2017, lot 3205) and another of Arhat Kanakavatsa, housed in the Museum der Kulturen, Basel (Essen & Thingo, Die Gotter des Himalaya, 1989, Vol. II, p. 127, no. II-274).
