Giovanni Bottero

This is a statue of the Seikanzeon Bosatsu Kannon made by Ishizaki Shuho 石崎秀峰.
It is a large Bodhisattva statue, over 37cm in height.
On the back, it is engraved with "Made by Shuho."
Crafted with care down to the smallest details, it is a very elegant Bodhisattva statue with a strong presence.

The Seikanzeon Bosatsu statue represents Kannon Bosatsu (also known as Kannon Bodhisattva), a key figure in Mahayana Buddhism symbolizing compassion. Kannon, often called "the one who hears the cries of the world," is revered for her ability to assist sentient beings in distress. The Seikanzeon form is one of the most basic and commonly depicted representations of Kannon.

Key features of Seikanzeon Bosatsu statues:
Pose: The Seikanzeon Bosatsu typically appears with one face and two arms, often holding a lotus or a water jar, with a calm and serene expression.
Attire: The figure is adorned with traditional bodhisattva ornaments like crowns, bracelets, and necklaces, and dressed in elegant robes. These decorations symbolize that the bodhisattva has not yet attained full Buddhahood and remains engaged with the world.
Significance: Seikanzeon is especially revered for responding to the suffering of all beings, in line with her name meaning "the one who perceives the sounds of the world." She is a beloved figure for those seeking solace in times of trouble.
In Japan, Kannon Bosatsu has been an important object of devotion since the Nara and Heian periods, with many statues and temples dedicated to her. Seikanzeon statues hold significant artistic and spiritual value, particularly in the sculpture traditions of the Heian and Kamakura periods, and can be found in famous sites such as Horyu-ji and Sanjusangen-do.
