銘文：欽差分守福建泉南等處，地方游擊將軍署都指揮僉事金富□處鑄供奉，天啟七年季秋吉
Condition
As visible in the catalogue photo, there is some surface wear and oxidisation to the metal inlays, all consistent with age. Several of the inlaid hardstones are missing (some with later replacements), including the two eyes of the dragon on the left sleeve and those of the animal mask at the body armour. The figure is hollow and was probably originally seated on a (now missing) stand . There is some original pitting and minor dents in the cast, including a small hole to the right hem of the robe draping over his right knee. The overall condition is good with no evident further breaks or recent repairs. The bronze is nicely patinated to a warm brown colour and the actual colour is consistent with the catalogue illustration.

拍品資料及來源
此尊銅關帝像鑄工精美，線條流暢，盡現工匠技藝之精湛。關帝面容威嚴肅穆，袍服線條優雅，錯銀紋飾精細，二者對比之下更顯匠心獨運。可比較一明天啟六年（1626）真武像，載於《The Second Bronze Age. Later Chinese Metalwork》，倫敦，1991年，圖版4。另見一尺寸稍小之關帝像，風格自然，與本拍品相類，售於倫敦佳士得1977年10月3日，編號143。
此像紀年，甚具歷史研究價值。據銘，製於天啟七年（1627）秋末一吉日，以奉關帝。施主為一金姓軍官，時為欽差分守泉南等處（今福建南部泉州地區）地方遊擊將軍署部指揮會事。
關帝，又稱關公，傳為三國時期（西元220-265）武將關羽。關羽一生英武善戰，與吳國孫權一役中戰死荊州。關帝之風，深為明代皇帝推崇，其像時見於宮廷繪畫。此風至清代日盛，關帝更成道教及佛教重要神衹。鴻禧美術館藏數尊關帝造像，年代各異，可作參考，展於《金銅佛造像圖錄》，鴻禧美術館，台北，1993年，編號84-86。
