This finely cast gilt bronze figure, gilded with 24 karat gold, represents Indra, the king of the gods in both Hindu and Buddhist traditions, depicted here in a graceful seated posture.
He is shown adorned with a richly detailed crown, elaborate jewelry set with colored stones, and flowing ornaments that emphasize both his divine status and refined elegance.
His relaxed yet poised posture conveys a sense of authority balanced with serenity.
The surface retains a beautiful warm gilding, with areas of natural wear revealing the copper beneath, enhancing the sculpture’s depth and character.
