Guanyin — Storia e analisi

Guanyin si erge su una base di loto, con la mano sinistra sollevata nel gesto di rassicurazione e tiene un vaso nella mano destra. Qui è rappresentato come una divinità maschile. Dopo la dinastia Tang (618-907), gli artisti iniziarono a ritrarre Guanyin come una figura femminile.
