Amida

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a statue of Amida by an unknown artist. The statue is dark brown with a subtle sheen. The figure stands on a round base with a decorative edge. The base has a rounded, scalloped design around the top and bottom edges. The figure is wearing a long robe with many folds. The robe covers both shoulders and has a layered, wavy pattern. The right hand is raised with the index and middle fingers extended. The left hand hangs down by the side. The head has a distinctive hairstyle with small bumps on top. The eyes are closed. The background is dark at the top and lightens towards the bottom. A shadow falls to the right of the statue.
