EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient artwork titled "Buddha Sheltered by the Serpent King Muchalinda" believed to have been created in the 11th or 12th century. The unknown artist skillfully carved this masterpiece, depicting a significant moment in Buddhist mythology. In this stunning sculpture, we see Buddha seated in the lotus position with his legs crossed and eyes closed, deep in meditation. He is surrounded and protected by the mythical creature Muchalinda, who takes on the form of a majestic serpent with its hood spread wide. The intricate details of both figures are brought to life through vibrant colors and patterns carved into schist. The image captures not only artistic beauty but also profound symbolism. It represents Buddha's enlightenment under the sheltering presence of Muchalinda, symbolizing protection from worldly distractions during his spiritual journey. Originating from Nepal or Nepalise heritage art, this piece holds immense cultural significance within Buddhism. Its presence at an art institute like Chicago's Art Institute further emphasizes its value as a timeless work of art that transcends borders and time periods. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back centuries ago to witness an extraordinary moment frozen in time - a testament to human creativity and devotion to religious beliefs.
