Description This crown Buddha represents Shakyamuni Buddha, enhanced by adding a royal crown characteristic of a king. The design features gems between the three points of the crown, which cover them and connect at the base. Behind the ear, the ribbons are firmly secured by a knot adorned with a blossom, their ends gracefully curling upward above the shoulders. The earrings boast a distinctive leaf-like shape, while the broad necklace is embellished with large, curving pendants. It’s important to note that the necklace and the face show clear signs of wear, indicative of extensive use. This crown statue is a powerful celebration of the Buddha’s awakening in the northeastern Indian village of Bodhgaya. Positioned cross-legged on a double lotus, the Buddha reaches out to touch the earth, invoking the earth goddess as a witness to his enlightenment. With his majestic crown and ornate jewelry, he is robed in traditional monastic attire. The prevalence of crown Buddhas has surged in Buddhist art since the seventh century. The crown and the cascading ribbons behind the ears are potent symbols of the Buddha’s enlightenment in esoteric Buddhist iconography.
