 note = {The Standing Bodhisattva introduced here is a newly discovered example of the hollow dry lacquer technique. The sculpture was acquired from an art dealer around 1965 by Ikeda Hayato (1899-1965), a former Prime Minister, and then it passed into the collection of its current owner upon Ikeda's death.
     The figure is 77.1 cm tall. While there is a great deal of restoration on the figure, the restoration does not damage the original appearance of its form. Judging from the style, this work is thought to have been created at the very end of the 8th century or the beginning of the 9th century.
     Of particular note is the structure of this figure, as seen through analysis of X-ray imagery. Specifically, both arms and the central head/body section were roughly formed in clay separately, and then the surfaces of each clay section was coated in hemp cloths and hardened. A small knife was used to cut the head/body section in half, front and back, at around the place where the ears were located. The internal clay form was discarded, the two pieces rejoined, and the two separately formed arms attached at their respective shoulder locations. These factors all indicate the advanced hollow dry lacquer techniques that had developed by the final period of Tempyô era hollow dry lacquer work. The
top of the pedestal (h. 9.1 cm) was made in the same period as the sculpture.},
