EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of a bronze sculpture titled "Buddha seated in meditation on the Naga, Angkor". Created by an anonymous Cambodian artist during the 11th century, this masterpiece stands at an impressive size of 114x64 cm and is currently housed in the Musee National de Phnom Penh, Cambodia. In this artwork, Buddha can be seen sitting in a lotus position, deep in meditation. The intricate details of his tranquil face and crossed legs showcase the skillful craftsmanship of Khmer art. Resting beneath him is a magnificent Naga, or snake-like creature known as Mucilinda. Its coiled body serves as both a seat and protective shelter for Buddha during his spiritual journey. The symbolism behind this composition is profound. As one gazes upon it, they are reminded of the importance of inner peace and self-reflection that Buddhism teaches. The presence of the Naga signifies protection from worldly distractions while meditating. This South East Asian treasure not only represents religious devotion but also showcases the rich cultural heritage found within Angkor. It serves as a testament to Cambodia's artistic legacy and its ability to inspire awe even after centuries have passed. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's dedication to preserving historical artworks like this one, we can now admire its exquisite details with ease. Let this image transport you into a world where tranquility reigns supreme and enlightenment awaits those who seek it.
