Welcoming Descent of Amida with Twenty-Five Bodhisattvas

This painting depicts the Buddha Amida arriving to escort a dying person to his Pure Land, or Western Paradise. He is attended by an entourage of 25 bodhisattvas, enlightened beings who are committed to serving others, many of whom provide orchestral accompaniment to herald the momentous occasion. The bodhisattva Kannon kneels, holding a lotus dais for the deceased to ride to their destination. Fisa demonstrativa, nu obiect aflat in patrimoniul acestui muzeu.
