EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely carved limestone Head of a Bodhisattva, or Pusa, dates from the 7th to 8th century and hails from China during the Tang Dynasty. The Bodhisattva, a being of enlightenment and compassion in Buddhism, is depicted with a serene expression and long, flowing hair. The intricate carving reveals the artist's mastery of the medium, with delicate details such as the curling locks, the wrinkles around the eyes, and the intricate earrings and headdress. The Bodhisattva's traditional attire, consisting of a robe draped over one shoulder and a sash around the waist, is also meticulously rendered. The use of color, although now faded, would have originally added depth and vibrancy to the piece. This sculpture is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of China and the influence of Buddhism during the Tang Dynasty. It is a typical example of the handicrafts produced during this period, showcasing the artistic skills and religious beliefs of the time. The Head of a Bodhisattva is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is on display for visitors to appreciate and learn from. The museum, located in Los Angeles, California, USA, is a leading center for art and culture, with a diverse collection spanning various continents and time periods. This sculpture adds to the museum's extensive Asian art collection and provides a glimpse into the history and traditions of ancient China.
