EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring Buddha image (gold) by Thai School, standing tall at a height of 300 cm. Located in Wat Traimit, Bangkok, Thailand, this masterpiece is believed to belong to the Sukhothai Dynasty's distinctive style from the 13th century. Its true magnificence was concealed under layers of plaster until its rediscovery in 1955 when the solid gold beneath was unveiled. This revelation earned it the title of being the world's largest solid gold statue. The photograph captured by eLuca Tettoni beautifully captures every intricate detail and radiance of this golden deity. The seated Buddha exudes an aura of tranquility and serenity that resonates with viewers on a spiritual level. Its sheer size commands attention and leaves one in awe of its grandeur. As we delve into its historical significance, we are transported back to medieval Siamese times when Buddhism flourished as a prominent religion in Ayutthaya. This monumental sculpture serves as a testament to both Thai craftsmanship and devotion towards Buddhist beliefs. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this remarkable piece through their fine art collection, allowing us to appreciate its cultural value for generations to come. Let this mesmerizing print serve as a reminder of our connection with spirituality and inspire us towards inner peace and enlightenment
