Tara - Bronze - Nepal - Late 20th century

Bronze Tara – Nepal – 20th century

A finely executed bronze sculpture of the Buddhist goddess Tara, originating from Nepal.

The statue is crafted in the characteristic Newar style from the Kathmandu Valley, recognizable by the refined facial features, jewelry and harmonious body proportions.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Tara is regarded as the embodiment of compassion, protection and wisdom.

The statue has been cast in bronze using the traditional lost-wax method and features a beautiful, naturally developed dark patina with signs of wear that contribute to its authentic character. The graceful posture, large earrings, and the richly decorated neck and arm jewelry showcase the craftsmanship of Nepalese bronze casting.

Condition
Good vintage condition, with normal wear, light patina marks and small signs of use appropriate for the age.
