EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a Drunken Buddhist Priest from the early to mid-19th century, as depicted in this hand-carved and lacquered wooden statuette. The priest, dressed in traditional Buddhist robes, is seen from the back, carrying a broken geta (wooden clog) on his back. The intricate detailing of the carving is evident in the textured clothing, the folds of which appear as if they are real, and the delicate inlays of lacquer that adorn the figure. The concept of the Drunken Priest is a popular motif in Japanese Buddhism, representing the idea of a priest who has transcended worldly desires and achieved a state of enlightenment through the indulgence of alcohol. The broken geta symbolizes the shedding of worldly attachments. This full-length figurine, with its rich color and intricate carving, is a testament to the artistic heritage of Asia and the continuity of traditional craftsmanship in Japan during the 19th century. The Drunken Buddhist Priest stands as a unique and intriguing piece of Asian art, showcasing the beauty and depth of the continent's cultural history.
