Image: Thai - Seated Buddha in "Maravijaya" - Walters 542742

Description: This small image follows the Sihing iconography- gem radiance, short mantle, "vajrasana," right hand on the knee. It has few if any of the stylistic qualities of the 15th-16th century manifestations of the Sihing, however. The treatment of the facial features may appear to have a folksy quality, but nevertheless the sculptor is in control of the modeling and quite capable of deciding when a straighforwardly graceful curve is in order and when something more quirky is preferable.
