Message Thank you very much Anita for all your research and information. Unfortunately, I know very little about it and will need to continue to research so that I may understand better. Can you tell me what this statue is called? Are you saying that the statue and the base were made separately at different times and in different countries? Why would this be? What was the cultural and religious point of keeping such a statue and was this a common custom for all buddists? I live in Chicago. Do you know of a place or person who I should take the statue to so that it can be seen close up? Do you think that there is any value in this piece? I do not have it insured in a rider to my house insurance and don't know if I should or not. Again, thank you! You certainly know a great deal about asian art. Susan Post a Response |
