This painting depicts a seated Buddhist figure in meditative posture, dressed in traditional garments. The figure is adorned with intricate jewelry, holding a rosary in one hand and making a symbolic gesture with the other. The dark background emphasizes the figure's serene, contemplative attitude. The author spent some time practicing in an ancient temple in Shanxi, China, when he was young. The peaceful atmosphere of the temple provided him with reflections on life, which he kept with him for decades before creating this work. This painting illustrates cultural heritage, spiritual symbolism and artistic expression.
