EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century print depicts the Cosmic Form of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, also known as Guan Yin or Kuan Yin in East Asia. The Bodhisattva is a central figure in Mahayana Buddhism, revered for his compassion and ability to hear the cries of the world. In this representation, Avalokiteshvara is depicted with multiple heads and arms, each gesturing in a unique mudra, or symbolic hand position, to represent various aspects of his boundless compassion. The print is a stunning example of South Asian heritage art, showcasing the intricate details and vibrant colors characteristic of the region's ceramic and terracotta sculptures. The Bodhisattva's form is adorned with gold and paint, adding to the sculpture's opulence and grandeur. The exact origin of this print is unknown, but it is believed to have come from Tibet or another region of the Himalayas, where the worship of Avalokiteshvara is deeply rooted in Tibetan Buddhism. The print is now part of the esteemed collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is displayed as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Asia and the enduring influence of Buddhism on art and spirituality. The Cosmic Form of Avalokiteshvara is a powerful reminder of the boundless compassion and wisdom that lies at the heart of Buddhist teachings. This print invites us to reflect on the interconnectedness of all beings and the importance of cultivating compassion and understanding in our own lives.
