EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Candra sculpture, a remarkable piece of religious art from the 11th-12th century. Carved meticulously out of volcanic stone by an Indonesian artist, this meditative deity exudes a sense of tranquility and divine power. The seated figure, adorned with an intricately detailed headdress, represents a god in Hinduism. With closed eyes and crossed legs, it is engaged in deep meditation, symbolizing spiritual enlightenment and inner peace. The sculpture's serene expression invites viewers to contemplate their own journey towards self-discovery. Standing at an impressive height of 79 cm, this South East Asian icon captivates with its delicate craftsmanship and attention to detail. The bas reliefs on the statue further enhance its beauty and provide additional layers of meaning. Preserved in a private collection, this rare artifact has been captured flawlessly by photographer Dirk Bakker. His skillful composition allows us to appreciate every curve and contour of this ancient masterpiece. Dating back over nine centuries ago, during the 11th-12th century BC or XI-XII century AD (depending on interpretation), this Candra sculpture stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of artistic expression throughout history. Its timeless appeal continues to inspire awe and reverence among art enthusiasts worldwide.
