Artist's Description
The Great Statue of Amida Buddha at Kamakura, Known as the Daibutsu, from the Priest's Garden. Artist: John La Farge (American, New York 1835-1910 Providence, Rhode Island). Dimensions: 19 1/4 x 12 1/2 in. (48.9 x 31.8 cm). Date: 1887.
On a trip to Japan with Henry Adams in 1886, La Farge enlisted watercolor--the familiar medium of the traveling artist--to create studies for illustrations and to paint sheets for exhibition. He executed this bold and monumental composition after his return to New York, using a watercolor sketch done during his travels as well as photographs that he and Adams had taken. The Daibutsu, or Great Buddha, a fifty-foot-high bronze cast in 1252, is renowned for its colossal size, its peaceful demeanor, and its unusual site in the open air surrounded by mountains and trees. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
