The twelfth century Water Moon Guanyin is a widely depicted image of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Buddhist art. It originated from the painting and sculpture art of the Song Dynasty in China (960-1279 AD). The reason why Shuiyue Guanyin is named is because its image incorporates elements of water and moon. Shuiyue Guanyin usually has a water bottle on her head, symbolizing the realm of purity and nirvana. Behind Guanyin Bodhisattva, a moon is often depicted, representing the radiance of wisdom and compassion.
