Hanging Image of the Buddha Yakushi Nyorai
Life Story
A bronze circular disc shows the figure of a seated Buddha. The disc has two loops on each side at the top for suspension/attachment purposes. The figure shows fine facial features and is seated on a base showing floral or petal patterning. Incised lines or carving on the figure indicates flowing robes. One hand rests on his knee with the palm cupped, while the other is raised to the chest, seen in side view. There is some to the bottom right area of the disc round the rim.
