Dispelling fear with his hand in the gesture of fearlessness (Abhaya) and bestowing boons in the Varada mudra, Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara in this wooden statue infuses the ambiance with a quality of divine auspiciousness. The aesthetics of this artwork can be appreciated in the dynamism of Avalokiteshvara’s scarf forming stunning ripples on his sides and the stillness of his celestial countenance. Realism and liveliness are felt in the enlivened visage of Lokeshvara, the form of his physique, and his graceful posture. Standing on a lotus pedestal, which represents an enlightened mind, Avalokiteshvara in this icon is a source of heavenly tranquillity that guides one to the doors of supreme wisdom.
