Oxidized Copper Sculpture of Shakyamuni Buddha Artwork

Made of an oxidized copper body, we have sculpted this beautiful sculpture of Buddha Shakyamuni in the traditional Himalayan art of Nepal. A skill set is passed down to us from generations of our master artisans. We have depicted him sitting upon a moon disc of a lotus with a meditation posture and peaceful expression. With his right palm almost touching the ground, he carries an alms bowl in his left hand as a representation of having gained enlightenment.

A fine artwork of Shakyamuni Buddha can be a perfect gift for you from Nepal.

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain in life. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
