One of my favorite old world sculptures is the Great Buddha in Kamakura, Japan. This massive statue is enormous at nearly 45 feet tall, hollow inside, and dates to the mid-13th century. Although I haven't seen the work in person, I've studied it for decades and have a desk top reproduction near this computer. The feeling from it is serenity, peace, quietude, wisdom, and love.
