In this painting, Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva is seated comfortably on a rock rising from the sea. Auspicious clouds are stretching out from a round green nimbus and body halo. The deity takes on the appearance of White-robed Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva with a white robe draped over his head. Behind the Bodhisattva are a ritual ewer (kundika) and bamboo. Below him Dragon King and Sudhana are worshipping the deity.
According to the inscription in the lower section, this painting was produced in 1854 by the monk-painter Dosun (active around the mid-19th c.). Dosun worked mainly at temples in Jeollanam-do and Jeollabuk-do Provinces, including Seonunsa Temple in Gochang, Seonamsa Temple in Suncheon, Songgwangsa Temple in Suncheon, and Hwaeomsa Temple in Gurye. This work is presumed to have been created during the period when Dosun served as a head monk-painter for the first time.
