EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Buddhist tablet from the Period of Division in 6th century China. The standing figure, carved with exquisite detail, is depicted in high relief against a striking black background. Although the right hand is missing, the sculpture's significance remains intact. Dated back to 551 CE, this artwork holds immense historical and cultural value. The image provides a close-up view of the tablet, allowing us to appreciate its intricate craftsmanship and vibrant colors. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Buddhism through various elements such as the mandorla surrounding the figure and the mudra (hand gesture) known as varadamudra. This gesture symbolizes compassion and granting of wishes. Displayed at Arthur M Sackler Gallery within Freer Gallery of Art, this piece represents an important part of Chinese heritage art. It serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic mastery during that period. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported into ancient China, where Buddhist teachings flourished alongside remarkable sculptural traditions. Through its presence in educational institutions like Smithsonian Institution's scientific institution, it continues to inspire generations by bridging history with contemporary understanding. This print invites us to reflect on our shared human experiences across time and culture while celebrating the beauty found within religious art forms like this magnificent Buddhist tablet created by an unknown artist centuries ago.
