EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a flying warrior from Quang Nam province in the 11th century AD. Carved meticulously out of sandstone by the Champa Civilization, this sculpture is a testament to their artistic prowess. Housed in the Cham Museum in Danang, Vietnam, it stands as a remarkable relic from an era that spanned from the 2nd to 17th century. The intricate details on this ancient stone carving depict a figure adorned with traditional Cham attire and armed with a sword. This warrior exudes strength and valor as he defies gravity, seemingly suspended mid-air. Rooted in Hindu mythology and religion, this piece reflects the rich cultural heritage of Southeast Asia. The Flying Warrior serves as a reminder of legends and myths passed down through generations. It symbolizes bravery and heroism while embodying the spirit of battle against all odds. The craftsmanship behind this relief sculpture is awe-inspiring, showcasing not only technical skill but also deep reverence for religious beliefs. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork captured by Stefano Baldini's lens, we are transported back in time to an era where mythological tales came alive through masterful carvings like these. Let us marvel at its beauty and appreciate its significance within Vietnamese history and culture.
