EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 13th century Buddhist Triad sculpture, an image of the revered Buddha flanked by two attendant figures, represents a significant artistic and religious heritage from South and Southeast Asia. The triad, currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a masterpiece of unknown origin, showcasing the intricate details and refined craftsmanship of the period. The central figure of the triad is the Buddha, depicted in a serene and contemplative stance, symbolizing enlightenment and wisdom. His elongated earlobes and the ushnisha, a prominent bulge at the crown of his head, are characteristic features of Buddhist iconography. The two attendant figures, likely representing Bodhisattvas, are depicted in dynamic poses, expressing devotion and protection towards the Buddha. The triad is made of copper alloy, with intricate details and patterns adorning the figures' robes and headdresses. The use of color and the patina on the surface of the sculpture adds depth and texture, enhancing the visual appeal and spiritual significance of the artwork. The Buddhist Triad is a testament to the rich artistic and religious traditions of South and Southeast Asia during the 13th century. Its intricate details, refined craftsmanship, and spiritual significance make it an invaluable addition to the collections of LACMA and a source of inspiration and education for visitors. This masterpiece serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Buddhism on the artistic and cultural landscape of Asia and beyond.
