EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic sculpture of "Buddha with daughters of Sena" in the Gandhara Style, dating back to the 2nd-3rd century. Before attaining enlightenment and while enduring extreme austerities, Buddha is depicted receiving nourishment from the compassionate daughters of Sena. This masterpiece, housed at the British Museum, beautifully captures a poignant moment that symbolizes humanity's struggle with hunger and suffering. The image portrays a profound sense of spirituality and family values within Asian culture. The serene expressions on both Buddha's face and those of Sena's daughters convey a deep connection between them. Their act of offering food to an emaciated Buddha reflects their understanding and empathy towards his spiritual journey. The photograph highlights various elements such as color, texture, and intricate details found in this ancient artwork. It draws attention to Buddha's ribcage protruding through his body due to prolonged fasting during his quest for enlightenment. Displayed against a backdrop representing centuries-old traditions, this image serves as a reminder of Buddhism's origins on the Indian subcontinent. It represents Gautama Siddhartha (also known as Gautama Buddha or Sakyamuni) before he became enlightened - when he was still Prince Gotama. Photographed by CM Dixon, this remarkable piece not only preserves historical significance but also evokes contemplation about human existence and our shared struggles across time and continents.
