EDITORS COMMENTS
In the intricately woven tapestry of Chinese mythology, the enigmatic figure of P'an-Koan, the Arbiter of Life in the infernal regions, holds a profound place. This deity, whose name translates to "Lord of the Underworld," is an essential component of the Chinese belief system, representing the balance between life and death. The image captured in this photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich symbolism and cultural significance of P'an-Koan. Depicted here, the god is shown in regal attire, seated on a throne, and holding a fan in one hand and a rope in the other. The fan symbolizes the power to bestow life, while the rope represents the ability to take it away. This image is believed to date back to the Han Dynasty (206 BCE - 220 CE), a period marked by significant developments in Chinese art, philosophy, and religion. The intricate details of the deity's clothing, the ornate throne, and the delicate patterns adorning the background are all testament to the skill and artistry of the artist. P'an-Koan's role as the Arbiter of Life in the infernal regions is a complex one. He is both a judge and a savior, deciding the fate of souls based on their deeds in life. Those who lived virtuous lives are sent to heaven, while those who did not are sent to the underworld. This duality is reflected in the image, with the god depicted as both a benevolent ruler and a stern judge. The photograph print of P'an-Koan offers a unique window into the ancient Chinese belief system, providing a glimpse into the intricacies of their religious practices and the role of deities in their lives. It is a reminder of the enduring power of mythology and the profound impact it has had on human civilization.
