EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the three holy ones of Chinese religious history, immortalized in a classical and historical artwork. In the lower left corner, we find Confucius, the revered philosopher who founded the quasi-religious system of Confucianism during 551-479 BC. Positioned at the upper center is Gautama Buddha, hailing from India and known as the founder of Buddhism around c. 563-483 BC. Lastly, Lao Tse takes his place on this spiritual trio; he lived between the 4th and 6th centuries BC and established Taoism. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life these ancient figures who have shaped Eastern philosophy for centuries. Each leader can be seen deep in meditation or prayer, emanating an aura of wisdom and divine connection. Their serene expressions reveal their profound understanding of existence and their respective teachings. This illustration transports us back to a time when spirituality played a crucial role in oriental culture. It serves as a reminder of humanity's quest for meaning beyond materiality throughout history. As we gaze upon this artistic masterpiece from Henri Dore's "Recherche sur les Superstitions en Chine" (1914 edition), we are reminded that these leaders were not just philosophers but also masters who guided countless individuals towards enlightenment. With its rich symbolism and cultural significance, this print encapsulates both reverence for tradition and curiosity about ancient China's religious landscape—a true testament to our fascination with exploring different belief systems across time.
