EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a Standing Buddha statue from the Pagan period, dating back to the 11th or 12th century. Created by an unknown artist, this bronze sculpture is inlaid with silver, adding a touch of opulence and elegance to its design. The serene figure of Buddha stands tall, emanating tranquility and spiritual enlightenment. With his hands gently resting at his sides and a calm expression on his face, he exudes an aura of peace that transcends time. Hailing from Burma (now Myanmar), this artifact represents the rich cultural heritage and religious significance of Buddhism in Asia. Its presence in The Art Institute of Chicago's Asian collection serves as a testament to its historical value and artistic merit. The intricate detailing on this statuette reflects the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during the Pagan Kingdom dynasty. Every curve and contour has been meticulously carved with precision, showcasing both technical expertise and devotion to religious iconography. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back centuries ago when it was created. It reminds us of our connection to history, spirituality, and artistry across continents. This standing Buddha statue continues to inspire awe with its timeless beauty and profound symbolism—a true treasure waiting to be discovered within the walls of The Art Institute of Chicago.
