This dynamic and intricate sculpture depicts Marichi (Marici), the Buddhist goddess of the dawn and light, often associated with protection and warding off evil.
The multi-armed deity is seated in a relaxed, royal posture astride a stylized boar, a traditional vehicle (vahana) associated with this figure.
She is adorned with an elaborate, multi-tiered crown, intricate beaded jewelry, and a green painted lower garment with red sash accents.
Her multiple hands hold various symbolic implements, including a lotus and a vajra. The figure is framed by a spectacular, large flaming mandorla (aureole) that radiates behind her, adding dramatic visual impact.
She is elevated on a green lotus petal base. The piece is finished in a warm, antiqued gold gilt with painted accents, making it a captivating focal point for a collection of Himalayan art or a spiritual space.
