Specificatii
Chinese Buddhist wooden sculptures of Water-moon Guanyin, a
Bodhisattva sitting in a leisurely reclining pose on a rocky
throne, are housed in Western collections and are thus removed from
their original context(s). Not only are most of them of unknown
origin, but also lack a precise date. Tracing their sources is
difficult because of the scant information provided by art dealers
in previous periods. Thus, only preliminary investigations into
their stylistic development and technical features have been made
so far. Moreover, until recently none of the Chinese temples that
provided their original context, i.e. their precise position within
those temple compounds and their respective place in the Buddhist
pantheon, have been examined at all.In her study, Petra H. Rosch
investigates these very aspects, including questions about the
religious position and function of the sculptures of this special
Bodhisattva. She also looks at the technical construction, the
collecting of Chinese Buddhist sculptures in general and those made
of wood in particular.She uses a combination of stylistic,
iconographical, buddhological, as well as technical methodologies
in her investigation of the Water-moon Guanyin images and sheds
light on the Buddhist temples in Shanxi Province, the works of art
they once housed, and the religious practices of the eleventh to
thirteenth centuries connected with them.
