Introduction
This statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva is bare-chested and barefoot, with a crown on its head, silk draped over its shoulders, and a tassel on its chest. It sits on a seastone base. Its right foot is bent high, its right hand is leaning on the knee, and its left foot is drooping. The left hand is supporting the side of the seat and the pleats of its clothes. Smooth and free, the posture is leisurely and comfortable, and the shape is based on the style of Guanyin statues in the Song Dynasty. In addition, the Bodhisattva's face is elegant and beautiful, with his eyes looking down and his expression restrained. He has a deep human character without losing the dignity of the Bodhisattva.
