Condition

The overall condition is very good for its type. In addition to some expected creasing and foxing, there are typical small insect holes, many of which have been refilled professionally when the album was remounted. One corner of the album has been slightly chipped. The wooden covers have some typical surface scratches.

拍品資料及來源

本拍品所用之磁青紙本於佛教意義深遠,其與主治癒、解眾生疾苦之藥師如來,以及象徵純潔之青金石聯繫緊密。磁青紙本描金呈現精美絕倫之視覺效果,體現此冊頁之重要性。除此之外,抄寫佛經之舉既為修煉書法,又為功德無量之佛緣善舉。

有明一朝,啟磁青紙描金抄經、白描佛像之風,本冊頁之制,延此佛經傳統。見一明永樂十二年(1414年)楷書佛經冊頁例,售於紐約蘇富比2015年3月19日,編號427;另一明嘉靖庚子年(1540年)例,售於香港蘇富比2011年10月5日,編號1972;第三例傳為張寧(1425至約1506年)所作之《二十五圓通像》,見有乾隆皇帝鑑藏印,售於巴黎蘇富比2011年6月9日,編號242。
