About this image
The ornate interior of a Thai Buddhist temple -- a golden Buddha statue presides over the altar, flanked by intricate wall murals depicting Jataka tales (stories of the Buddha's previous lives) and supported by glittering mosaic-covered pillars. Fresh flower offerings and smoking incense sticks create a living atmosphere of active worship. Thai temple interiors represent some of the most elaborate sacred art in the Buddhist world. The Jataka murals typically depict 547 stories of the Buddha's previous incarnations, teaching moral lessons through tales of generosity, courage, and wisdom. The mosaic work (kanok pattern) uses tiny pieces of colored glass, gold leaf, and mother-of-pearl to create surfaces that shimmer and shift in the candlelight.
