Buddhafigur

15./16. Jahrhundert | Carl Bock

The depiction of Buddha at the moment of his enlightenment in Bodhgaya, which is located in modern-day India, shows him as the 'Fully Awakened One'. In this perfect, most compassionate and omniscient form of a Buddha, he has fully grasped the redeeming insight through his own efforts and is now able to communicate it to others.
