Sculpture, Raro Citipati in ottone - 17 cm - Brass

Ritual statuette from Tibetan tradition
Coming from a private collection, this fascinating brass sculpture depicts the Citipati, the dancing skeletal deities of Tibetan Buddhism. Considered guardians against evil and symbols of impermanence, the Citipati powerfully represent the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, transforming what is macabre into a message of spiritual strength and protection.

The figurine depicts the typical whirling dance of the couple, rendered with elegance and vivid details: finely modeled skeletal bodies, joyful expressions, and a dynamic posture that enriches the piece with ritual energy. The warm patina of the brass adds further depth and character, making it an ideal piece for both Himalayan art collectors and enthusiasts of esoteric aesthetics.
