Korean Koryo period bronze basin "pilgrimage inscription bronze binaural basin"
The charm of this relic lies in the fine decoration of its silver inlay: the five-character and four-line poem is intertwined with the image of the child. These poems, which evoke the concepts of no attachment and no duality, were written by Buddhist monks. One of the main decorative elements of this basin is that a child, probably a young Buddhist pilgrim named Sultanna, goes on a long spiritual journey in search of enlightenment. This bronze basin was made during the Koryo period (918-1392) between 1100 and 1200 AD. The basin was sold by London Gallery Limited to the Cleveland Museum of Art.
