Description
Lord Buddha is seated in dhyana asana, the meditative pose also called
padmasana. His hands are in the earth touching gesture also known as
bhumisparsha mudra. The Buddha is always depicted with elongated
earlobes, a vestige of his life as a prince, when he wore extravagant
jewelry. The deep sharp colors of this piece are absolutely stunning.
This wood sculpture is a one of a kind statue, hand carved by the very talented artists of Cambodia.
