Qing Dynasty gilded offerings to Buddha
This is a Buddha statue from 1850 AD, currently housed in the Minneapolis Museum of Art in the United States. This Buddha statue sits in the tentacle print on the ground, depicting the scene of Buddha about to awaken under the Bodhi tree. This moment is often described as a powerful battle between good and evil, confusion and insight.
Gilded Bodhisattva Statues of Qing Dynasty
The artifact is one of a pair of gilded bodhisattva statues from 18th century AD China. It is now housed in the Minneapolis Museum of Art. Although the two statues are mirror images of each other, they do not represent the same bodhisattva; they are Maitreya and Guanyin, respectively. They stand in elegant poses, holding the stems of a lotus flower, probably part of a sculptural trinity that surrounds a larger Buddha.
