Note du spécialiste

The Unified Silla period from the late seventh through the ninth centuries was one of political stability when an international style held sway throughout East Asia. This shakyamuni shown here was cast with an entirely open back which is a characteristic of the later part of the Unified Silla period gilt-bronze figures.
