Buddha
17. Jahrhundert | Alfred Raquez
Viewers steeped in the Western tradition of art history will see this depiction as an example of the Lan Na mixed style. The fingers are of equal length, reminiscent of the mature art of Sukothai - the ancient capital of the first Thai kingdom. The facial features with raised eyebrows and the distinctive chin with an engraved oval refer to the art of Lan Na, a kingdom in northern Thailand.
