Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva
CHINA; Northern Qi dynasty (550–577); Marble; H: 175.3 cm; Cleveland Museum of Art, Ohio, USA |
| The Bodhisattva stands with feet parallel on an inverted lotus pedestal. On the rounded face, the eyes are cast down compassionately and the mouth smiles serenely. The figure wears a close-fitting headdress and a stole that flows down the body from the shoulders and drapes over the elbows, from which the forearms are missing. Below the waist, the figure wears a long skirt and various intricate accessories. The style of the sculpture is reminiscent of the early Sui dynasty (581–618). |
