Three seated luohans
Not on view
Not all images of luohans depict them as exotic, superhuman beings. This sculpture comes from a tradition of realistic luohan representation, in which the figures are presented as familiar old monks with Chinese features. Sitting on roughly hewn rocks, the three luohans engage in study and meditation; they were probably once part of a larger tableau.
