Sui-Tang Painted Guanyin Bodhisattva Statue
During the Tang Dynasty, the social atmosphere was progressive, and there were fewer restrictions on cultural and artistic creations. The solemn and mysterious divine temperament of Wei and Jin Buddhist sculptures gradually transformed into a warm and compassionate human spirit during the Tang Dynasty. This statue of Guanyin has a plump and slightly smiling face with subtle expressions. It embodies the dignity and grandeur of an emperor while reflecting the grace and magnanimity of the Buddha. The figure is well-proportioned, with a harmonious body shape. Chinese sculpture incorporates many elements of painting, especially the superb use of lines and colors. The use of lines to convey the essence of all things is a prominent characteristic of Chinese art.
 
In this Bodhisattva statue, the shoulders are adorned with a reddish-brown headdress, the waist is wrapped in a light yellow silk skirt, and there is a stone blue cloak embellished with an elaborate crown (e'guan) and a necklace (yingluo), making the sculpture vibrant and radiant.
