This bronze sculpture presents a serene image of a Jina (Tirthankara) seated in the lotus position (padmasana) with hands in dhyana mudra, symbolizing meditation and inner tranquility. The figure is encased within an elaborate prabhavali (arch-shaped halo), richly decorated with intricate latticework, floral motifs, and celestial figures. The prabhavali serves both as a spiritual backdrop and a symbol of the Jina’s divine aura. The Jina’s calm expression and stylized torso reflect the ideals of ascetic discipline and spiritual enlightenment central to Jain philosophy. The tiered pedestal below, adorned with symbolic motifs and arched cutouts, enhances the sacred presentation of the figure. This artifact is a fine example of the metal artistry of Western India or the Himalayan region, showcasing devotional craftsmanship rooted in Jain artistic traditions.
