EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a remarkable sculpture known as "Yogini, 10th century". Crafted from stone and metagabbro by the Chinese School in the 10th century, this masterpiece stands tall at an impressive size of 116x76x43.2 cm. Currently housed in the prestigious Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA, it is a true testament to ancient artistry. The intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship of this sculpture are truly awe-inspiring. The yogini's serene expression and graceful posture reflect her deep connection with Hinduism, making her an embodiment of spiritual enlightenment. Standing amidst a backdrop reminiscent of India's Chola Dynasty (850-1280), she exudes an air of timeless beauty. With its intriguing provenance dating back to World War II era, this artwork holds historical significance beyond its artistic value. Generously gifted by Arthur M. Sackler to the Freer Gallery of Art, it has become a cherished part of their collection. Photographer Colleen Dugan skillfully captures every nuance and texture within this image print, allowing viewers to appreciate its magnificence up close. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork frozen in time through Dugan's lens, we are transported into a world where spirituality meets artistry - where ancient traditions intertwine with modern appreciation.
