A Mongolian parcel-gilt bronze figure of a Lama

Reference: ART400196

The lama, possibly Tsongkhapa, is modelled seated in dhyanasana on a single lotus base. He is modelled with a serene face and is wearing a monk's cap and robes decorated in three colours. He holds a stem in each hand, each leading to a flower by the shoulder. The baseplate is marked with a double vajra.
