5th Century Buddha Buddhism Craft Cross Legged Archaeological Artifact
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient Shanxi Province in China, where the magnificent Yun-kang caves hold a treasure of historical significance. Standing tall and serene within these sacred walls is a remarkable statue of Buddha, crafted during the northern Wei dynasty in the 5th century A. D. The stone sculpture exudes an air of tranquility as it sits gracefully, its full-length figure commanding attention and reverence. This artifact from an ancient civilization showcases exquisite carving skills and craftsmanship that have stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this work of art, we are transported into a world steeped in history and spirituality. The Buddha's front view reveals intricate details that reflect not only religious devotion but also a deep understanding of human representation. In this vertical composition, there are no people present, allowing us to focus solely on this extraordinary archaeological artifact. The cross-legged position symbolizes meditation and enlightenment – core tenets of Buddhism. Displayed at France's Musee Cernuschi (Oriental Art Museum) in Paris, this Chinese masterpiece serves as a testament to our shared past and cultural heritage. It reminds us that art has always been intertwined with religion, shaping societies throughout history. Through this photograph captured by Universal Images Group (UIG), we can appreciate the beauty and significance of ancient Chinese art while contemplating our place within the grand tapestry of human existence.
