EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Chinese artistry - the Buddhist lion (celadon). Created by the Chinese School in the 17th century, this intricately carved sculpture stands at a modest length of 11 cm. Housed within a private collection, it is an emblem of valour and energy. The image captures every delicate detail of this sacred creature, known for its association with Buddhism. The lion's trefoil tail elegantly curls around its hindquarters while lingzhi clouds gracefully frame its majestic presence. Its backbone symbolizes strength and resilience, reflecting the deep spiritual significance attributed to these creatures in Eastern culture. The celadon glaze adds an ethereal quality to this masterpiece, enhancing its allure and mystique. The serene expression on the lion's face invites contemplation and reflection, evoking a sense of tranquility that is synonymous with Buddhist teachings. A testament to ancient craftsmanship and cultural heritage, this photograph allows us to appreciate the beauty and symbolism behind each carefully chiseled feature. It serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with history and spirituality. Through A© Paul Freeman's lens, we are transported into a world where art meets divinity – where every stroke tells a story that transcends time itself. This stunning portrayal invites us to delve deeper into Eastern traditions while marveling at the artistic brilliance captured within one small but significant artifact.
