EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable frieze depicting nine divinities from the 10th century Cambodian School. Measuring 44x136 cm, this sandstone masterpiece can be found at the Musee Guimet in Paris, France. The intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship of this artwork are truly awe-inspiring. The frieze portrays various Hindu gods and goddesses, each representing different aspects of divinity. Among them are Surya, the sun god; Candra, associated with the moon; Isana or Yama, the lord of death; Brahma, the creator deity; Indra, ruler of heaven; Kubera or Vayu, god of wealth and wind; Agni, personification of fire; Rahu and Ketu. The Khmer style is evident in this piece through its distinct features such as animal riding deities on elephants and eagles. The relief work adds depth to these divine figures while highlighting their power and grace. As we gaze upon this ancient artwork frozen in time by photographer www. bridgemanimages. com. , we cannot help but marvel at how it has stood the test of time.
