西藏 十五/十六世紀 希繞強瑪銅像 Sherap Chamma, "Loving Lady of Wisdom", is the meditational form of one of Bon's Four Transcendent Lords, the female deity Satrig Ersang. One of her epithets revers her as, "the one who removes fear", repeated in this bronze's inscription. See another bronze image of the deity with slightly different iconography published in Per Kvaerne, The Bon Religion of Tibet, Boston, 1996, pp.52-3, no.10. The distinct aureole with floral motif is similar to that of a 15th-century central Tibetan Vajradhara published in Pal, Art from the Himalayas and China, Pasadena, 2003, p.141, no.93.
