About this work
A great white stupa rises behind a bronze seated Buddha on a lotus base, its golden spire painted with watchful eyes and hung with prayer flags, as a flock of pigeons wheels past. Below, a woman leans over a railing with a small child, another child stands nearby, and laden donkeys wait beside a seated figure in red.
Cool blue-grey sky and the stupa's white dome set off the warm gold and ochre of the shrine's roofs and the statue's dark patina. Light falls from above, catching the pigeons' wings and the golden ornaments, while the composition's tall vertical thrust and layered figures create a bustling yet reverent sense of daily life around a sacred site.
