EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print depicts Buddha Shakyamuni, the historical Buddha, in a serene and contemplative seated position. The image, of unknown origin, is believed to have been produced in South or Southeast Asia, possibly in Burma or South Asia. The Buddha is shown wearing the traditional monastic robes and sits in the lotus position, symbolizing detachment from worldly desires and spiritual enlightenment. The print is made of copper alloy and is richly decorated with intricate floral and geometric patterns, reflecting the artistic traditions of the region. Buddha Shakyamuni, also known as Shaka Nyorai or Shijiamouni, is the primary figure in Buddhism, the religion founded in ancient India over 2,500 years ago. The religion spread to other parts of Asia, including South and Southeast Asia, and continues to be practiced by millions of people around the world. This print is an important example of the artistic heritage of Asia and the rich cultural history of Buddhism. It is now part of the South and Southeast Asian Art collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is preserved and displayed for the enjoyment and education of the public. The print serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Buddhism on the arts and cultures of Asia and beyond.
