A COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF VISHNU ON GARUDA
NEPAL, CIRCA 14TH CENTURY

尼泊爾 約十四世紀 毗濕奴與迦樓羅銅像

The warm, lustrous surface of this small image of Vishnu atop his animal mount Garuda reflects centuries of adoration and ritual handling under a Nepalese devotee, wearing away nearly all its distinguishing features. Compare the following work's rich patina to a Nepalese gilt bronze of Devi from the Claude de Marteau Collection, sold at Bonhams, Paris, 14 June 2022, lot 31.

Provenance:
Ashencaen and Leonov, London, 2000s
