A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF ARHAT KALIKA QING DYNASTY, 18TH CENTURY
拍品描述：
QING DYNASTY, 18TH CENTURY
A Tibetan inscription on the back of the cushion, translated "Arhat Kalika, second left"
Himalayan Art Resources item no. 2818
12 cm (4 3/4 in.) high
銅鎏金迦裡迦尊者像
清 十七/十八世紀
底座後刻藏文銘文，意為：「迦裡迦尊者，左二」
This sculpture portrays Arhat Kalika in a relaxed seated posture, with the right leg bent and the other extended. His serene expression, characterized by slightly upturned lips, conveys an aura of compassion, wisdom, and spiritual transcendence. Delicately incised patterns enhance the hem of Kalika's layered robes with floral motifs that evoke the arhat's elevated spiritual status, the lotus flower being a key Buddhist symbol of purity and enlightenment.
The dense carving and heavy casting seen in the present figure are hallmarks of Tibetan metalwork from the 18th century. These techniques imbue the sculpture with a robust and enduring quality, reflecting its purpose as a sacred object meant to inspire devotion across generations. The intricate lines of varying thickness etched into Kalika's features and hands and the floral-patterned robe hem add vitality to the figure, while the gilded surface signifies his spiritual radiance.
A distinguishing feature of this sculpture is Kalika's Chinese-style boots with the lingzhi cloud motif, which reflect the fusion of Tibetan and Chinese artistic traditions over centuries. Tibetan Buddhism flourished under Qing imperial patronage, prompting the creation of numerous sculptural sets depicting the host of arhats produced contemporaneously in Tibet and China. Arhat Kalika is usually the fourth in a set of Sixteen Arhats. The distinctive round facial features and naturalism of the present sculpture, with its heavy casting, angular cushion, and flowing robe, compares favorably to a figure of Kalika sold at Bonhams, New York, 14 March 2017, lot 3205. A related figure of Arhat Kanakavatsa is in the Museum der Kulturen, Basel (Essen & Thingo, Die Gotter des Himalaya, 1989, Vol. II, p. 127, no. II-274.
此尊造像呈現的迦裡迦尊者坐姿自在，右腿盤曲，左腿伸展。他神情寧靜，嘴角微揚，散發出慈悲、智慧與超脫的氣息。精緻的刻紋點綴著迦裡迦層疊衣袍的邊緣，花卉圖案象徵其崇高的靈性境界，蓮花作為佛教純潔與覺悟的核心象徵，更彰顯其深意。
密集的雕刻與厚重的鑄造工藝，正是十八世紀西藏金銅工藝之標誌。這些技法賦予作品堅實而耐久的質感，呼應其作為聖物的使命，旨在激勵世世代代的虔誠信仰。迦裡迦面容與雙手上鑿刻深淺不一的細膩線條，以及衣袍邊緣的花卉紋飾，為造像注入生機，而表面的鎏金則寓意其靈性的光輝。
此造像的獨特之處在於迦裡迦穿著中式鞋靴，上飾有靈芝雲紋，展現了數世紀以來藏漢藝術傳統的交融。在清朝皇室的支持下，藏傳佛教蓬勃發展，西藏與中國同時創作著大量呈現十六羅漢的造像系列。迦裡迦尊者通常位列十六羅漢中的第四位。此像圓潤的面部特徵，自然主義的風格，與其厚重的鑄造工藝、方形底座以及飄逸的衣袍，可與2017年3月14日紐約邦瀚斯拍售出的一尊迦裡迦尊者像（拍品3205）相較。另一與之相關的羅漢迦諾迦伐蹉像現藏於巴塞爾文化博物館（見Essen及Thingo合著《Die Gotter des Himalaya》，1989年，卷二，頁127，編號II-274）。
