EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, a serene and symbolic scene unfolds in the life of Siddhartha Gautama's mother, Maya. Depicted in the Life of Buddha, Seoul, South Korea, Asia, this stunning image captures a moment before the birth of the revered spiritual leader. The dreamlike quality is palpable as Maya lies on her bed, surrounded by opulent fabrics and intricate patterns. A majestic white elephant stands beside her, its gentle trunk extended towards her with a lotus flower in its grasp.
The symbolism is rich and layered: the white elephant represents good fortune and prosperity in Buddhist tradition; while the lotus flower embodies spiritual growth and enlightenment. This poignant depiction speaks to the profound connection between Maya's subconscious mind and the divine forces that would shape her son's destiny.
As we gaze upon this exquisite print, we are transported to a world where myth meets reality. The artist's masterful use of color and composition invites us to step into this sacred space, where ancient stories come alive through vivid imagery. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply drawn to Eastern spirituality, this photograph is sure to captivate your imagination.
