Subject:Help Identifying Bronze statue sculpture Tara?
Posted By: Bob Tue, Mar 14, 2017 IP: 2601:0285:0000:c5ac:

Hello, I picked up this bronze and i am trying to figure out the details. It stands about 24" tall and appears to be solid bronze with gilt.. It is non magnetic and is yellow bronze rather than say, copper looking..

I believe it is a Tara? but unclear if that accurate . I also dont think it is ancient, but it appears to be pretty old, does not look like fake patina..

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated ..

Not an authoritative opinion here, but I would say it's from Nepal, early to mid 20th Cent. Probably Tara, as you suggested.
