Buddha Praputtachinnarat
The bronzed and artificially patinated figure sits on a throne in a figural frame that represents a Thai-style house and is understood as a "crystal palace". The name is derived from Praputta = Buddha title, rat = Raja and chinn = winner (i.e. "Buddha, the winner over Mara").
