拍品資料及來源
此尊以及下列五件拍品出自私人名家寶蓄,藏家飽覽萬卷,品味超卓,環蒐歐、美、亞洲,僅求佳例,其喜馬拉雅佛教藝術珍藏,琳瑯博深,自珍稀至極之東印度作明佛母像、藏西早期蓮花手觀音、丹薩替寺造像遺珍,至大明王朝造威武莊嚴之大威德金剛像,跨數百年藏傳佛教史,集各朝經典之粹,所呈拍品古雅隽美,多為名家遞藏,如新田棟一、安思遠、赫拉莫內克及 Capelo,源遠流長,非凡難得。
此銅造像氣宇超凡,原屬傳奇亞洲骨蕫商納思禮.赫拉莫內克(Nasli Heeramaneck,1902-1971年)之泛亞洲收藏,後又為安思遠雅蓄,經數位馳譽北美之亞洲藝術骨蕫商遞藏。
此尊早期蓮華手菩薩像以青銅鑄造,光澤可鑑,呈迦濕彌羅式。該式所依之造像傳統由西北印度傳入藏西,後於中古時期隨伊斯蘭擴張幾近消亡。
早在公元980年,迦濕彌羅匠人便入藏西建立工坊,裝飾彼時新興之廟宇寺院。佛教於藏地二度弘揚,古格王益西沃(Yeshe-Ö)厥功甚偉;在其扶助下,眾巧匠應譯師仁欽桑波(Rinchen Zangpo)之邀赴古格王國。至此,藏西受迦濕彌羅影響,造像風格自成一家,本品即為證例;該風格傳承遍及藏西,繼而陶染藏中造像。
三重頭冠開孔嵌寶,濃密髮辮垂泄披肩,均乃迦濕彌羅之典型。後頸見冷金,髮絲見藍彩。腰布所刻半圓紋飾可比較一尊十二世紀藏西銅文殊菩薩像,見紐約蘇富比2013年9月,《佛相─佛教藝術經典之作展售會》,編號10。
頭冠及項鍊嵌寶方孔可另參考一尊十一、十二世紀銅蓮華手菩薩像,屬安思遠舊藏,錄於 Marylin M. Rhie 及 Robert Thurman,《The Sacred Art of Tibet》,紐約,1996年,頁136-137,編號28。
