The Buddha Stele from the Eastern Wei Dynasty
This stone monument is a cultural relic from the Eastern Wei Dynasty in China (534-550 AD) and is currently housed in the Cleveland Museum of Art in the United States. According to the inscription, this stone tablet was commissioned by King Yuanning of Gaoping in 537 AD to commemorate his deceased concubine, hoping that it could take her to the Western Paradise. Here, the Buddha's robe displays carefully arranged decorative patterns (large U-shaped folds and scallop shaped folds at the hem), combining linear rhythm and ordered symmetry. The mandala (almond shaped halo) on the edge of the flame echoes the linear eloquence of Chinese painting.
