EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Amida, the Buddha" takes us back to early 20th century Japan, offering a glimpse into its rich history and culture. The image, captured by renowned photographer Herbert G Ponting, showcases the serene beauty of Amida, the Buddha. Ponting's mastery in capturing intricate details is evident as he presents this iconic figure with utmost reverence. The photograph exudes a sense of tranquility and spirituality that resonates with viewers even after all these years. The composition draws our attention to every delicate feature of Amida's face – his closed eyes reflecting deep meditation, his gentle smile radiating compassion and enlightenment. It is an invitation to contemplate the profound teachings that Buddhism offers. This remarkable piece was originally created as an illustration for Ponting's book "In Lotus-Land Japan" which was published in 1922. Its inclusion in this publication speaks volumes about its significance within Japanese art and religious traditions. As we gaze upon this timeless image from the early 20th century, we are transported to a different era – one where spirituality intertwined seamlessly with daily life in Japan. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of art to transcend time and connect us with ancient wisdoms that still hold relevance today.
