Buddha smiles serenely, his lovely features seen through a red door. The mark of enlightenment appears on the master's forehead in this lovely work by Parinya Nanjai. Thailand is a predominantly Buddhist nation filled with breathtaking ancient temples, pagodas and other architectural wonders constructed to worship Buddha. Images of Buddha play an important role beyond mere decoration. They are traditionally placed within the home in special locations, such as shrines or pedestals, to help facilitate everyday religious worship. Nanjai frames the painting in teakwood.
