# Monumental Chinese Song Dynasty Style Carved Wood & Polychrome Guanyin. 19th C.

An impressive and serene **carved wood sculpture of Guanyin**, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, rendered in the **Song Dynasty style**. This monumental figure is gracefully posed in **“royal ease” (lalitasana)**, one arm resting casually on a raised support, the other draped gently across the knee — a posture symbolizing both compassion and quiet authority.

Expertly hand-carved from solid wood, the sculpture retains traces of its **original polychrome and gilt decoration**, now softly worn with age, enhancing its spiritual presence and historical depth. The figure is richly detailed with flowing robes, beaded jewelry, and a serene, meditative expression that conveys profound inner stillness.

This exceptional piece exemplifies the artistic refinement and devotional sensibility of **Song-inspired Buddhist sculpture**, merging naturalism with spiritual grace.

**Dimensions:**  
Height 53 in. × Width 41 in. × Depth 24 in.
