EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze figure represents Maitreya, also known as Mile or the Buddha of the Future, dating between the 4th and 5th centuries. The exact origin of this artwork is unknown, but it is believed to have been produced during the Northern Wei Dynasty or the Six Dynasties period in China or Asia. Maitreya is depicted as a bodhisattva or bosatsu, a being who has achieved enlightenment but has chosen to postpone entering Nirvana in order to help others reach enlightenment. He is often shown with a serene expression and a gesture of giving or teaching. This sculpture is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Buddhism and its influence on art across continents. The figure is cast in bronze using a mold or mould, showcasing the intricate details of Maitreya's robes, facial features, and posture. The use of bronze adds to the durability and longevity of the artwork, allowing it to survive through the centuries. This Maitreya figurine is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in the United States. The museum's extensive art exhibitions and educational programs provide opportunities for visitors to explore and learn about the history and significance of art from various cultures and time periods, including this ancient Buddhist sculpture.
