Bodhisattva Guanyin Seated in a Rock Grove

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts Bodhisattva Guanyin seated on a rocky base surrounded by curved vines. Guanyin sits cross-legged on a lotus throne, adorned in flowing robes with intricate patterns. The figure's right hand holds a small vase. The sculpture is made of a polished material, likely amber or a similar resin, exhibiting a rich brown color with darker undertones. A curved, hollowed-out rocky structure rises behind Guanyin, adorned with carved vines and leaves. The base features coiled vines. The background transitions from dark at the top to light gray at the bottom.
