EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the serene atmosphere of a Refectory in a Buddhist monastery in Beijing, China, dating back to 1896. The image depicts a group of bonzes (monks) gathered in their dining hall, engaged in quiet contemplation and nourishment.
The intricate details of the engraving by Felix Elie Regamey transport us to this sacred space where monks come together to share meals and practice mindfulness. The traditional Chinese architecture and decor add an air of authenticity to the scene, giving viewers a glimpse into the daily life of these devoted individuals.
The composition beautifully showcases the harmony between man and nature, with subtle references to Buddhism woven throughout. From the peaceful demeanor of the monks to the simple yet elegant furnishings, every element in this print speaks volumes about spiritual devotion and communal living.
As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the timeless traditions that have shaped cultures across Asia for centuries. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of simplicity, gratitude, and connection – values that resonate deeply with followers of Buddhism around the world.
