| Northern Wei Shakyamuni Meditation Statue | |
Most of the painted sculptures in the Mogao Caves depict Buddhist figures and scenes of their practice and nirvana. The Northern Wei Shakyamuni Meditation Statue employs the technique known in art history as “Cao Yi Chu Shui” (“Cao-style garments emerging from water”), where thin robes cling closely to the body in a translucent effect. |
