Description
The Clay Seated Sakyamuni Buddha Triad of Ssanggyesa Temple in Nonsan was made in 1605 by a group of five monk-sculptors led by Wono (the other four being Sinhyeon, Cheongheo, Sinil and Huichun), who was active during the early seventeenth century. The triad, consisting of Shakyamuni, Amitabha and Bhaisajyaguru, enshrined in the double-story building is one of the Buddhist statues built after the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592, which resulted in a seven-year war that devastated Korea. The stately appearance, broad shoulders and long waist of each of the three statues reveal that they were influenced by the sculptural achievements of the late Goryeo to early Joseon period.
