Bodhisattva

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Bodhisattva statue by an unknown artist depicts a dark-colored stone or metal figure with a serene expression, eyes closed or half-closed. The figure sits cross-legged on a flat base with the left leg on top of the right, wearing a draped robe secured by a sash around the waist. The figure's right hand rests on the right knee, while the left hand is raised with the palm facing outward. The statue features intricate adornments including necklaces, bracelets, and armlets. A circular mark is visible on the forehead. The figure's hair is styled in an updo. The background transitions from dark to light gray.
