Description:
An 18th to 19th century Chinese Tibetan bronze Stupa, height 110 cm 122 cm x 46 cm, this bronze stupa is a great embodiment of the concept of space in Buddhism. It is composed of three parts: the lower base, the main body and the tower spire. The base is carved exquisitely with a scene that a reclining Buddha surrounded by monks; the main body of the tower is in a cone shape with a thick bottom and a thin top, and four movable sculptures of sitting Buddhas reside on the middle of the tower: they oriented in four directions to cover a full field of view, controlling varied visions and fortunes.
