可能来自中国河北省承德, 清代乾隆宫廷作品.

这尊造像融合了中国古代木雕漆艺传统与藏传佛教的象征体系及装饰手法。清朝满族皇帝与西藏主要宗教家族保持着密切联系，藏传佛教在清廷亦被广泛尊奉。乾隆皇帝对藏传佛教尤为笃信，其在位期间皇室敕造了大量精美艺术品，供北京及华北其他中心的藏传佛教寺庙使用。这些作品在西藏僧人的指导下创作，风格具有鲜明的藏式特征；然而包括此像在内的许多造像，实则出自清宫造办处，且很可能由汉族匠师制作完成。

Label:
This sculpture combines the ancient Chinese tradition of lacquered wood sculpture with Tibetan symbolism and decorative approaches. The Manchu emperors of the Qing dynasty maintained close relations with the leading religious families in Tibet, and Tibetan Buddhism was practiced by many at the Qing court. The Qianlong emperor had a particularly strong attachment to Tibetan Buddhism, and many spectacular works of art were commissioned by the imperial family for use in Tibetan Buddhist temples in Beijing and other centers in northern China during his reign. These works were created under the supervision of Tibetan monks and in a style that is definitely Tibetan; however, many of these sculptures, including this example, were produced at the Qing imperial workshops and most likely by Chinese artisans.
