像背后开槽记铭并嵌铜镜一枚：大元国至元十九年四月庚寅朔廿日（公元1282年5月28日）高99.7cm. 原出处不详， Ralph M. Chait艺廊出售，1934年美国纽约大都会艺术博物馆通过Joseph Pulitzer遗赠基金购藏。 ​

A removable panel in the back of this image gives access to a hollow interior that would have been filled with offerings at the time of the piece’s consecration. The interior surface of the panel bears a date (1282) and a small bronze mirror that functioned as a protective talisman.

The bodhisattva has a rounded physique and stands in a slightly twisting pose, which creates a sense of depth. Both conventions attest to the introduction of Indo-Himalayan sculptural traditions in China in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, when the Mongols controlled both China and parts of Tibet. The elaborate coiffure also derives from these traditions.
