Description from the seller

Ayutthaya large torso, is one of the three pieces that made up a figurative sculpture of Buddha. Composed of elegant curves and soft lines, it retains the details of the diaphanous tunics draped over the left shoulder. Given the placement of the arms, it is likely that Buddha was sitting cross-legged with his hands in Bhumisparsha.

Between 1350 and 1767, the city of Ayutthaya was the second capital of the Kingdom of Siam (present-day Thailand). Ideally located at the confluence of three rivers, it prospered, becoming a global center for trade between the eastern and western hemispheres.
