十一面观音双足端站立,共有十一面八臂。十一面造像公分五层。下三层为三面,正面是见到行善衆生生出的慈悲欢喜相;左面是见到行恶衆生生出悲心的大悲救苦相;右三面是见到净業衆生生出的赞叹相;第四层为善恶杂秽衆生改恶向善而现出的爆笑相,正前方最高处是阿弥陀佛的头像,为修大乘的衆生所作的说法相。除最上层佛面外,其餘十面皆戴五叶宝冠。八臂中的中央二手合十,其餘六臂分执法物,可惜宝冠、手臂及法器有的已佚。上身袒露,胸前佩璎珞。下身着长裙扇形裙摆,波浪形裙褶,飘逸感极强。整体造像造型端正,铜质非常细致湿润,风格古朴。
Peaceful in appearance, with eleven faces rising upward in groups of three, the 10th is wrathful and the face at the top is that of the buddha Amitabha. Each face has two eyes and a dot between the eyebrows. Long black hair flows across the shoulders. The first pair of his eight hands are holding a heart with a precious jewel. The three right hands extended to the side are in the mudra of generosity, holding a Dharma wheel and a crystal prayer bead Mala. The three on the left hold a water flask, a bow, an arrow and a lotus blossom. Sadly some of them are lost. Each face is adorned with a golden crown, ribbons and earrings. Necklaces, bracelets and precious jewels adorn the body and a scarf is wrapped around the neck. A deerskin is worn across the left shoulder, and the lower body is covered in various silk fabrics.
