A fine gold- and black-lacquered wood statue of Buddha Amida Japan, Edo period H. 85 cm (Gesamt) Finely carved figure of Amida Buddha, standing in samabhanga on a separately carved lotus pedestal supported by a shishi, which rests on an elaborately decorated tiered base. His hands are held in the welcoming raigo-in mudra, assumed by Amida Buddha when descending to receive the souls of the deceased. He is clad in a loosely draped monastic robe falling in voluminous folds around the body. His serene face features heavy-lidded eyes and a crystal-set byakugo (urna). His hair is arranged in tight curls above the high ushnisha. The reverse of the lotus pedestal is fitted with a separately carved koha (halo), with radiating spokes symbolising the light emanating from Amida's head. From an old German private collection - Partly minor damages due to age, slightly rest.
