Archival Note Card - Buddha Room | Station 8
About this piece
A small gold figure sits by a river while a white-roofed building watches from the hill.
This is an archival note card from the Buddha Room series showing the stage of enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. It is archival paper. Buddhist art commonly organizes the Buddha's biography into a numbered series of scenes, so that each stage can be read as a step on a path. Rolling green hills fold around a blue stream, with a pale-walled building at lower left and orange-robed figures gathered near it. A small seated golden figure sits at upper right. White clouds fill the blue sky. It is 5 inches long and 7 high.
A walk through the hills with very pleasant company.
