Decorated with black lacquer and gold leaf, this elegant Buddha sculpture was carved from wood in 1875 during Japan’s Meiji Restoration period. The figure presents the classic conventions of representing Buddha - the distended earlobes of his princely origins, the third eye of enlightenment, and the hand gesture of teaching - with decided elegance in the flowing robes, slender build, and refined facial features.
