This artistic representation of the compassion of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva achieves the pinnacle of sacred beauty. The posture of resting one arm on a raised knee and placing the other hand on the ground originates in the manifestation of Water-Moon Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. It is also known as royal ease pose (maharajalilasana in Sanskrit), meaning the posture of Cakravartin (Wheel-turning Monarch).
The inverted-triangle shape of the face, the thin, elongated upper torso, large circular earrings, and ornaments draped across the body are indicative of the influence of Chinese Buddhist sculptures produced in the Yongle era (1403–1424) of the Ming Dynasty.
