A Large Japanese Porcelain Figure of a Guanyin
Located in New York, NY
Introducing a Magnificent Japanese Porcelain Figure of a Guanyin - A Monumental Expression of Serenity and Grace.
Behold this majestic depiction of Guanyin, rendered in porcelain with remarkable skill and artistry. Standing almost waist-height, this monumental statue exudes a sense of tranquility and spiritual presence that captivates the beholder.
The figure of Guanyin is beautifully stylized, featuring a high bun adorned with a draped head covering that adds an air of elegance to the composition. Dressed in traditional clothes, the statue showcases an underglaze red hand-painted robe gracefully layered over exquisitely detailed garments. Delicate blossoms, meticulously painted by skilled hands, artfully scatter across the fabric in a pleasing pattern, adding an enchanting touch of artistry to the ensemble.
The masterful craftsmanship is evident in the realistic draping of the clothing, creating a breathtaking illusion of soft fabric that seems to defy the porcelain medium, the only reminder being its alluring shine. The Guanyin figure exudes a sense of serenity with a pleasant and peaceful smile, complemented by gently lowered eyelids and gracefully elongated ear lobes.
As you gaze upon the statue, you'll notice a delicate attention to detail, allowing the toes to peek out from under the floor-length blue trimmed gown, that further enhances the intrigue of the figure.
A beautiful red drop...

Japanese Gilt Seated Kannon Figure, circa 1850
Located in Chicago, IL
Intricately carved and finished with gilt black lacquer, this seated figure depicts the bodhisattva Guanyin, known in Japanese Buddhism as Kannon. Described as the "Buddha of Infinite Compassion," Kannon is the embodiment of mercy and makes himself available to all who call upon him with all their mind.
Kannon is depicted here seated in diamond position upon a double lotus plinth, set above a stepped base. He is dressed in gracefully draped robes and wears a tall crown bearing a minuscule figure of Amida, the Buddha of Infinite Light. He has a serene expression of calm and holds his right hand in the abhaya mudra, a gesture of comfort, blessing, and protection. Backed by a magnificent leaf-form nimbus, this Kannon figure...

Japanese Lacquered and Gilt Wood Buddhism Statue from Edo Period
Located in Atlanta, GA
An exceptional and wood statue of Buddhism Guardian Seitaka Doji from Japan circa Edo period (1603-1868), likely the earlier part of 17th century. One of two chief attendants of Fudou Myouou (the other being Kongara Doji), the name of Seitaka Doji is a transliteration of Sanskrit "Cetaka", meaning servant, slave, and he is said to personify expedient action. He is most commonly found on the right side of Fudou, together with Kongara Doji on the left, forming the Immovable triad, Fudou Sanzon, the terror of evil doers. Seitaka largely adheres to the iconography of a wrathful youth with fleshy body and face, skin in the color of a red lotus, has his hair tied in five knots, and holds a vajra in his left hand and a vajra-club in his right hand, but the actual artistic representations of him in Japan do...
