Thai cultural heritage gilded Buddha head wood carving
The highlight of this work of art is that it combines the charm of hand carving with traditional craftsmanship. The making of Buddha statues in Thailand is an expression of religious belief and a manifestation of cultural history.
Shakyamuni Buddha statue (8th century AD)
The limestone Buddha head of Shakyamuni, dating back to the 8th century AD, is currently housed in the Minneapolis Academy of Arts. The Buddha statue of Shakyamuni is highly compatible with the classical style developed by early sculptors of the Tuora bowl. The face is square, the mouth is wide, the nose is flat, and the hair is curly. Although the artist of the Tara bowl drew inspiration from the idealized sculpture concepts of India, this portrait indicates that the facial features of the local residents quickly integrated into their religious art.
