EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Khmer art: a statue of Buddha, the revered teacher. Believed to have originated from the site of Tuol Preah Theat in Cambodia during the 7th or 8th century, this sculpture stands at an impressive height of 0.94 meters. Preserved within the Musee Guimet in Paris, France, it serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and artistic mastery of Cambodian artisans. The intricate carving displayed on this Buddha statue reflects both the religious significance and aesthetic beauty that characterizes Khmer art. Every delicate detail is meticulously crafted, capturing not only the physical features but also conveying spiritual serenity and wisdom. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported back in time to an era when Buddhism flourished in Southeast Asia. The statue's serene expression invites contemplation and introspection while its graceful posture exudes tranquility. It is fascinating to witness how this artwork has withstood centuries, surviving through various historical periods including Cambodia's Middle Ages. Its presence serves as a reminder of our shared human history and offers insight into ancient beliefs and practices. Through this photograph by Josse, we are granted access to appreciate the beauty and significance of Khmer art from afar.
