Japanese Edo Relief - Kannon Bodhisattva of Compassion

Item Details

Description

East Asia, Japan, Edo period, ca. 19th century CE. A splendid and quite sizable stone relief of Kannon, the bodhisattva of compassion, shown standing and holding a lotus flower to his chest in his left hand. Craped in long robes, the barefoot bodhisattva stands barefooted wearing a conical headdress and his serene visage gazes forward. He is framed by a mandorla inscribed with Japanese characters, likely translating to his name of a prayer. This type of Japanese stone carving is known as a sekibutsu (stone Buddhist image). Size: 6.1" L x 10.6" W x 20.4" H (15.5 cm x 26.9 cm x 51.8 cm)

Bodhisattvas are among the most compassionate beings in the universe, devoting themselves to saving the suffering and helping others achieve enlightenment and Buddhahood. Traditionally depicted as less austere than Buddhas with graceful postures and elegant garments, a nod to the riches of the Northwestern Chinese Silk Road, this piece is no exception. Bodhisattvas or Guanyin are associated with compassion and mercy - their long ears significant, because they rescue all human beings by hearing their cries for help and the sounds of suffering.

This item is oversized and requires special shipping.
