An impressive and serene carved wood sculpture of Guanyin, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, rendered in the Song Dynasty style. This monumental figure is gracefully posed in “royal ease” (lalitasana), one arm resting casually on a raised support, the other draped gently across the knee — a posture symbolizing both compassion and quiet authority.
Expertly hand-carved from solid wood, the sculpture retains traces of its original polychrome and gilt decoration, now softly worn with age, enhancing its spiritual presence and historical depth. The figure is richly detailed with flowing robes, beaded jewelry, and a serene, meditative expression that conveys profound inner stillness.
This exceptional piece exemplifies the artistic refinement and devotional sensibility of Song-inspired Buddhist sculpture, merging naturalism with spiritual grace.
