A RARE AND IMPORTANT GILT-BRONZE FIGURE OF SARVABUDDHADAKINI
TIBET, 15TH CENTURY

拍品專文

Her name means 'Dakini of All Buddhas' and she represents Wisdom. Dakini's are female spirits who serve as guide and muse to tantric practitioners. She is an important goddess and appears often as tutelary deity on paintings. Less known are sculpted forms of Sarvabuddhadakini. She tramples on the Hindu gods Kalaratri and Bhairava as to demonstrate the superiority of the Buddhist teachings above Hindu ones. In contrast to many of her known wrathful representations she is bestowed in the presented figure with a serene though benign expression.

Comparable examples with such powerful feeling are difficult to find. See a smaller Tibetan 13th century brass figure, illustrated in P. Pal, Art of the Himalayas: Treasures from Nepal and Tibet, New York 1991, pl.56.
