Chinese Qing Dynasty gilt bronze Bodhisattva Buddha of seated Manjushri-ghosha, the Glorious One with a Melodious Voice, from the set of the 8 bodhisattva heart-sons of the Buddha Shakyamuni. Peaceful and youthful in appearance, orange in color like the rising sun, the right hand loosely extended across the knee holds the stem of a blue utpala flower blossoming above the shoulder supporting a blue upright sword of wisdom giving forth licks of flame from the tip. Cradled to the heart with the left hand is a folio text of the Prajnaparamita sutra. At the top of the head, the blue hair is piled in a topknot, some falling loose across the shoulders, tied with golden flowers. Lightly adorned with gold earrings and a choker necklace, he wears a scarf and a lower garment with even-folds covering the legs. In a relaxed posture of royal ease atop a large pink lotus blossom. The underside with incised gilt quatrefoil flori-form petal visvavajra mark surrounding the centralized DaiJi.
