注脚
尼泊爾 十四世紀 銅鎏金文殊菩薩像Identified by the sword and sutra by each shoulder, Manjushri, the Bodhisattva of Perfected Wisdom, smiles while slightly tilting his head. An unusual stylistic feature is the placement of his sacred thread, here hanging down from the bodhisattva's right shoulder, while in most Buddhist images it is seen on the left. Another example is a 14th-century gilt-bronze Maitreya or Manjushri in Drigung Monastery (von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculpture in Tibet, Vol. II, Hong Kong, 2001, pp.1032-3, no.256D-E). Compare with a closely related Manjushri published in von Schroeder, Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, Hong Kong, 1981, p.376, no.100C. ProvenancePrivate Swiss Collection since 2007
