Alle Auktionen / Asiatische Kunst / 18th C. Chinese Gilt & Lacquered Wood Seated Guanyin
East Asia, China, Qing Dynasty, ca. 18th century CE. Envision the serene presence of Guanyin, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, captured in this 18th-century sculpture. Carved from wood and adorned with layers of rich gilt and lacquer, the figure radiates a gentle, golden light. Seated in the lotus position, with her hands resting in the dhyana mudra, Guanyin's tranquil expression and graceful posture speak of boundless mercy and wisdom. This artwork, a relic of a bygone era, is not merely an object of beauty, but a tangible echo of devotion, reflecting centuries of faith and the enduring quest for enlightenment. The intricate details of the carving, from the delicate folds of the robes to the serene countenance, invite contemplation and offer a glimpse into the spiritual heart of the past. Size: 5.9" L x 8.6" W x 16" H (15 cm x 21.8 cm x 40.6 cm); 17" H (43.2 cm) on included custom stand. Guanyin's significance in 18th-century China, during the Qing Dynasty, was profound. As the embodiment of compassion and mercy, Guanyin was widely revered by people from all walks of life. She was seen as a protector, a source of comfort, and a guide, particularly for women, children, and those facing hardship. During this period, Guanyin's image was frequently invoked in prayers for healing, safe childbirth, and good fortune. The proliferation of sculptures like this one reflects the deep integration of Guanyin worship into the daily spiritual practices and artistic expressions of the time, highlighting her central role in Chinese Buddhism and popular religion.
