A large head of the Buddha
Thailand
U-Thong period, circa 15th Century
Height: 18”

The Buddha smiles gently, his inlaid eyes downcast beneath elegant brows. The filet separating his forehead from his hair is the feature which distinguishes this head as being from the second period of U-Thong.

Provenance: W.J. Daniel, Philadelphia 18th October 1969.
