拍品专文

The carved inscription begins with a date which may be translated as “tenth day, seventh month, first year [of the reign of] Jing Ming,” corresponding to AD 500.

A Northern Wei stone Buddhist stele of closely related form in the collection of the Taito City Calligraphy Museum, Tokyo, dated by inscription to the 2nd year of Yanxing (AD 472), is illustrated in Hokugi seikizō bukkyō chōkkoku no tenkai (Development of Buddhist Sculpture in Northern Wei Dynasty China), Osaka, 2013, pp. 16-17, no. 02. See, also, the Northern Wei stone carving of a seated Buddha with very similar treatment of the drapery of the robes, illustrated by Matsubara, Chūgoku bukkyō chōkokushi kenkyū (Chinese Buddhist Sculpture: A Study Based on Bronze and Stone Statues other than Works from Cave-Temples), Tokyo, 1966, pl. 54a, with description on p. 238.
