A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF TSONGKHAPA TIBET, 16TH CENTURYA GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF TSONGKHAPATIBET, 16TH CENTURYHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4728 21 cm (8 1/2 in.) high西藏 十六世紀 銅鎏金宗喀巴像Tsongkhapa (1357-1419), founder of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism, is presented in full monastic garb and the tall conical pandita hat. His face, hands, and feet are naturalistically modelled and his patchwork robes are chased with fine floral designs and chevrons over his rotund frame.Je Tsongkhapa enjoyed great popularity among Tibetans and is abundantly portrayed in paintings and sculptures. As both a spiritual leader and highly respected scholar, he is believed to have received instructions from various deities in his visions, which he incorporated in his writings. He is often flanked by lotus flowers supporting a sword and a sutra, attributes which are associated with the Bodhisattva Manjushri, of whom Tsongkhapa is revered as his incarnation.The stylistic elements are consistent with 15th century castings from Central Tibet. The lotus petals and the tall foot of the lotus base specifically reference a mode coming from the atelier of Sonam Gyaltsen, which flourished in Tsang province during the early mid-15th century and share similarities to another lama portrait (HAR 11028). Moreover, Tsongkhapa's legacy, both historically and visually, was established during the 15th century in Central U-Tsang region, of which several memorials depicting his likeness stand as testaments to his amassed following and growing popularity of the Gelug order.See a closely related example of Tsongkhapa without his pandita hat, published in Spink and Son Ltd., Light of Compassion, Buddhist Art from Nepal and Tibet, 1997, pp. 24-5, fig. 12, and later sold at Christie's, New York, 14 September 2010, lot 66.Provenance:Private Hong Kong collection, acquired before 2000
