Español: Buda sentado de bronce, Tailandia

Una figura de bronce del Buda se sienta con las piernas cruzadas sobre una base escalonada de loto, con las manos en postura meditativa y la derecha tocando la tierra. Se distinguen el peinado en forma de llama, los lóbulos alargados y el rostro sereno, con pátina verde sobre la superficie desgastada.
