EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the divine figure of Ganesh, a revered deity in both Hinduism and Buddhism. Created during the late 12th to early 13th century in Angkor, Cambodia, this bronze sculpture stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Southeast Asia. Ganesh is depicted here in a seated position with his legs crossed in the lotus posture, symbolizing tranquility and enlightenment. The intricately crafted statue measures 23.5x25.5 cm and can be found at the Musee National de Phnom Penh in Cambodia. With his distinctive elephant head and four arms, Ganesh represents wisdom, luck, and protection against obstacles. His iconic trunk adds an element of playfulness while also signifying strength and adaptability. As an avatar of spiritual devotion transcending religious boundaries, Ganesh holds great significance for both Hindus and Buddhists alike. This fusion of beliefs is characteristic of Khmer artistry prevalent during that era. The photograph captures every intricate detail of this remarkable artwork while highlighting its timeless beauty.
