Lacquered and gilded wood monk inlaid with colored glass, Burma, 20th century With his hands in a meditative attitude, the monk is dressed in a monastic robe with a pleated flap between the legs, a characteristic feature of the Mandalay region. The emaciated treatment of the face and the asceticism of the body give us a fairly realistic portrait of a monk. Height: 93 cm Cracks, missing lacquer, accidents.
