| Description |
The serene figure of Buddha stands atop a plinth,
wearing a flowing robe incised with floral
patterns. A slight but sweet smile plays about his
lips, his hair is arranged in tight curls, and his
right hand is raised in a gesture of benediction.
Though the Buddha is youthful in appearance, he
radiates an aura of timeless wisdom; he seems
truly "the enlightened one". Whether or not one
follows the teachings of the Buddhist faith, this
elegant statue evokes a feeling of peace and
calm. Its benevolent message transcends cultural
boundaries and speaks directly to the human
heart.
