O soše

Seated Guanyin, from the late twelfth to thirteenth century, is in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Originally a rocky throne suggested the shore of Potala, the deity's mythical island home. The right knee rises beneath a resting arm in a relaxed pose. A calm, compassionate expression presents Guanyin as a guide offering souls hope of salvation. This form is known as South Sea Guanyin, associated with the island setting represented by the lost rocky seat. On view in gallery 241C.

Slovy muzea

The South Sea Guanyin was originally seated on a rocky throne to represent the shore of his home in the mythical island of Potala. His right leg is raised, the arm resting on the folded knee in a relaxed position. With an expression of grace, calmness, and compassion, the Guanyin is especially appealing as the "guide of souls" who offers hope for salvation.
