Gilt repousseTibet , 18th centuryDimensions: Height 25 cm Wide 16 cm Depth 4 cmWeight: 206 gramsOne of the Dharmapalas in Tibetan Buddhism and protector deity standing in a dancing position on one leg. The citipati normally appear as a couple of female and male as one of the seventy-five forms of the Mahakala. They remind us of the impermanence of life and constant change. Dressed in a patterned loincloth and with a portruding belly and human body. Usually a citipati is depicted as a dancing skeleton but this version looks very human with only the head showing the skeletal appearance with a wide-open grin. He is holding a ritual weapon in his right hand.
