EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th- to 16th-century hanging scroll, titled "Celestial Buddhas and Deities of the Northern, Western, and Central Dipper Constellations," is an anonymous masterpiece from the Ming Dynasty of China. The scroll, made of ink and color on silk, depicts various celestial Buddhas and deities associated with the Northern, Western, and Central Dipper constellations. The figures are intricately rendered, each one clad in richly colored robes and adorned with elaborate headdresses and jewelry. The Northern Dipper constellation is home to the Great Bear, and the deities associated with it include the Celestial Buddha of the North, represented by a figure with a bear's head and a monk's robe. The Western Dipper constellation is associated with the god of the North Star, and the deity depicted here is shown with a long beard and a crown of stars. The Central Dipper constellation is represented by the god of the Southern Dipper, who is shown with a serene expression and a crown of clouds. The textile is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of China and the influence of Buddhism on its art. The scroll is a typical example of the traditional Chinese art of painting on silk, which reached its peak during the Ming Dynasty. The use of ink and color on silk allowed for a great degree of detail and subtlety, making this an exceptional piece of art that continues to captivate viewers with its intricate depictions and vibrant colors. This scroll is currently on exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is a popular attraction for visitors interested in Asian art and history. The scroll is a valuable addition to the museum's collection, providing insight into the artistic and religious practices of China during the Ming Dynasty.
