EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable statue of Vishnu, crafted from gres and believed to date back to around 1100. The style of the sculpture is reminiscent of the iconic Angkor Vat in Cambodia, indicating its cultural significance within the region. Currently housed at the Musee des Arts Asiatiques in Nice, France, this ancient masterpiece offers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of Cambodia. Vishnu, one of the principal deities in Hinduism, is depicted here with great attention to detail. From his majestic posture to his intricately carved body and distinctive hat, every aspect reflects the skill and craftsmanship of Cambodian artists during the 12th century. The vibrant colors used in this sculpture add an extra layer of beauty and symbolism. Each hue brings out different aspects of Vishnu's divine presence and highlights his role as a protector and preserver within Hindu mythology. Leonard de Selva's expert photography captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a sense of reverence towards this religious artwork. Through this image, viewers are transported across time and space to appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such masterpieces as well as their spiritual significance within Cambodian culture. As we admire this photograph today, we can't help but marvel at how it connects us with centuries-old traditions while reminding us that art has always been a powerful medium for expressing faith and spirituality.
