EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Vishnu Anantasayin, a bronze sculpture from Angkor, Siemreap in Cambodia. Dating back to the 2nd -11th century, this ancient relic is an exquisite representation of Hindu artistry and spirituality. The image captures the god Vishnu in a state of peaceful slumber, known as Anantasayin. With multiple arms gracefully arranged around him, he exudes tranquility and power simultaneously. Despite its damaged state and weathered appearance, the statue's beauty remains intact. The Baphuon style of craftsmanship is evident in every engraved detail on this colossal deity. The artist's skillful hands have immortalized Vishnu's reclining form with precision and finesse. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported to a bygone era when Khmer civilization flourished. The remnants of this once-majestic statue serve as a testament to the rich cultural heritage that thrived within these lands centuries ago. Now housed at the Musee National de Phnom Penh in Cambodia, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of our connection to ancient civilizations and their profound devotion to religious beliefs. With possible copyright restrictions applying due to national laws, it is essential for enthusiasts and scholars alike to consult appropriate sources before utilizing or reproducing this image for any purpose beyond personal appreciation.
