EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 8th century print showcases the enchanting figure of Kannon, also known as Avalokiteshvara or Guan Yin, the bodhisattva of compassion in East Asian Buddhism. The origins of this masterpiece are shrouded in mystery, as the creator remains unknown. However, it is believed to date back to the Nara period in Japan, between 710 and 794 A.D. Carved from richly hued wood and meticulously handcrafted, this full-length statuette is a testament to the artistic prowess of the time. Kannon is depicted in a standing position, with her right hand in the gesture of granting refuge, while her left hand holds a lotus flower, symbolizing the attainment of enlightenment. Her serene expression and gentle gaze radiate a sense of compassion and nurturing, making her a beloved deity among Buddhists. The intricate details of her clothing and ornaments are beautifully rendered, with delicate patterns and gilding adding to the overall allure of the piece. The use of lacquer and lacquered gold leaf further enhances the visual appeal, creating a stunning contrast against the dark wood. This image of Kannon is a precious addition to the vast collection of Asian art at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and artistic traditions that have shaped the continent's history, and continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
