EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 14th century Head of Buddha Shakyamuni, hailing from South or Southeast Asia, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the region. The copper alloy sculpture, dating back to the fourteenth century, depicts the enlightened one with serene features, closed eyes, and a gentle smile. The intricate details of the facial features, the delicate contours of the ears, and the subtle folds of the robe, all point to the masterful craftsmanship of the unknown artist. Buddhism, a major religion in Asia, is deeply rooted in the cultural and spiritual fabric of the continent. This Head of Buddha Shakyamuni, also known as Shaka Nyorai or Shijiamouni, is a revered figure in Buddhism, representing the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, who attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. The Head of Buddha Shakyamuni is a precious addition to the South Asian and Southeast Asian Art collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The museum, located in Los Angeles, California, is a renowned institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing the artistic and cultural heritage of the world. This Head of Buddha Shakyamuni is not only a significant historical artifact but also a source of inspiration and contemplation for visitors, inviting them to explore the depths of Buddhist philosophy and spirituality.
