Description
This ink wash painting of the Buddha’s disciple Kalika, the seventh of the sixteen arhats, depicts the Buddhist saint seated on a chair in profound meditation. The portrait is markedly different from Goryeo paintings of the five hundred arhats in which the saints are arranged against rocks and trees. The painting is one of only a few extant arhat portraits created by Goryeo artists, and one of only two examples of sixteen-arhat paintings, the other being that of Ajita, the fifteenth arhat, which is currently in the collection of the National Museum of Korea in Seoul.
