注脚
十七/十八世紀 漆金木雕龍女立像Longnu is the daughter of the Dragon King, and would have stood to the left of an image of Guanyin. The present figure with its head turned slightly to the right would have been facing worshipers as the figure would have been angled slightly to the right on the altar, with a matching figure of Shancai on the right, angled slightly left towards the central image of Guanyin.
