EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Buddha of Grahi" an extraordinary bronze sculpture from the Srivijaya Period. Created by the ancient Malay empire, Srivijaya, which was based on Sumatra Island in modern-day Indonesia, this image represents a significant influence on Southeast Asia. The Buddha of Grahi is considered one of the most notable images from this period and can be found at the Bangkok National Museum in Thailand. It was generously donated by the Governor of Grahi and discovered at Wat Wieng in Chaiya District. In this photograph captured by eLuca Tettoni, we witness a beautifully carved statue depicting the serene figure of Buddha meditating in lotus position. With closed eyes and a tranquil expression, it exudes spiritual calmness and inner peace. Symbolic elements such as the lotus position and closed eyes represent deep meditation and enlightenment within Buddhism. The intricate carving details highlight both artistic skill and devotion to religious beliefs. As we observe this remarkable piece of art, we are reminded of the profound impact that Srivijaya had on shaping Southeast Asian culture through its powerful empire. This image serves as a timeless reminder of spirituality, serenity, and tranquility that continues to inspire people today.
