This standing Buddha image shows the famous Sukothai features—elegant proportion and smooth, boneless features. Unlike other
styles which show the Buddha prior to enlightenment, the roundness of the Sukothai features is meant to represent the relaxed state
of enlightenment the Buddha has already achieved. The Sukothai period is also known for images of Buddha walking, such as this one.This photo was taken on June 6, 1996, near Wat Trapang Ngoen in Sukothai Historical Park, Sukothai, Thailand. |
