Core Teachings
This seated Guanyin Bodhisattva, Liao Dynasty (907-1125) is from the Chinese collection of the Nelson Atkins Museum in Kansas City. This lifesize polychrome wooden figure of Guanyin is possibly the best-preserved and most magnificent sculpture from this period of Chinese Buddhist art. Guanyin is the bodhisattva architype associated with compassion and is depicted here in a pose of royal ease, gentle and calming, yet ready to reach out at any moment to answer the cries of those suffering.
