Buddha- the enlightened one, with a blissful smile on his divine countenance is one of the most popular and heavenly visions for a follower of Dhamma and the seekers of supreme wisdom. In this oil on canvas by Jugal Sarkar, a magnificent form of Buddha experiencing the bliss of enlightenment is presented in an ethereal visual vocabulary. Using earthy tones of oil paints, the visage of Buddha is painted, enlivened by perfect features- lotus eyes, sharp nose and inwardly smiling lips. A smear of red running from his forehead to the foreground of the painting symbolizes the pristine potency of wisdom. A Peepal leaf on his head and a fragrant lotus in the pond are ancient motifs that represent the episode of his enlightenment, underling Sarkar’s masterful reciting of traditional aesthetics in this heavenly artwork.
