EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient China, depicting a Chinese incense burner in the shape of a water buffalo and its rider. The rider is believed to be none other than Lao-tzu, the renowned Chinese philosopher who lived during the 6th century BC. Crafted from bronze during the Sung dynasty (960-1127 AD), this piece exemplifies the exquisite artistry and craftsmanship of that era. The intricate details of this bronze sculpture are truly awe-inspiring. The water buffalo, with its strong and sturdy form, serves as both an incense burner and a symbol of power and resilience. Mounted on its back, Lao-tzu appears serene and contemplative, embodying his philosophical teachings rooted in Taoism. As one gazes upon this artifact, it transports us back in time to an age when philosophy flourished alongside artistic expression. It reminds us of Lao-tzu's profound influence on Chinese culture as the founder of Taoism – a school of thought emphasizing harmony with nature and simplicity in life. This print not only captures the beauty of this historical treasure but also invites us to delve into ancient wisdom while appreciating the skillful craftsmanship behind it. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with art, philosophy, and our collective desire for deeper understanding throughout history.
