Seated bodhisattva Guanyin with an attendant
The statue depicts a seated bodhisattva Guanyin with an attendant. The bodhisattva sits on a base resembling waves or clouds. The bodhisattva has long hair styled in an updo with a decorative topknot. The bodhisattva wears a robe that drapes over the left shoulder and across the body, with folds carved in a naturalistic style. The right leg is bent and the right arm rests on it. The left leg is crossed over the right leg. The left arm hangs down with the hand near the knee. The bodhisattva's facial expression is serene with eyes cast downward. The attendant stands to the right, slightly behind, wearing a simple robe and hairstyle. The material appears to be a light-colored stone or ceramic. The background is a plain gray wall.
