The Venerable makes a holding gesture with a steadfast, certain expression, possessing the firm devotion of receiving wholesome Dharma, of guarding without forgetting, of making the wholesome practices continue and grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePainted by Li Zongyi in the traditional Chinese freehand (xieyi) ink style: the brushwork flows freely while layered tones of ink interplay, revealing the Arhat's spirit with only a few masterly strokes. The unpainted space breathes with Zen (Chan) atmosphere, balancing form and spirit and fusing religious solemnity with the refined charm of literati art. Each of the Five Hundred Arhats bears its own name and practice; every piece is a one-of-a-kind, irreproducible hand-painted original that combines devotional, artistic and collectible value.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApprox. 100×50 cm (about 4.5 Chinese sq. ft.) | Traditional hand-painted Chinese ink painting · Zen Buddhist figure | Ink on paper\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-top:14px;padding-top:8px;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;font-size:12px;color:#888;line-height:1.6;\"\u003eCopyright Notice: All artwork images are provided for browsing and pre-purchase reference only.
