本件作品做工精美、比例协调、神态生动,可说是件相当罕见的珍品。其基座是十字花莲瓣的椭圆形莲座,莲瓣圆鼓小巧,这是帕拉作品的特徵之一。背光顶部为石窟式罩顶,顶有宝瓶;正中央为长方形靠垫,连珠围绕一周;其上方的火焰型里雕刻一株菩提树,枝叶繁茂,也同样围绕了一圈连珠纹,左右还搭配有邬巴拉花;背光两侧呈S型的狮子为站立姿,脚踏大象及莲花,神态非常生动有趣。以邬巴拉花、石窟式罩顶或瑞兽为背光的佛像一般都是较早期的作品。
主尊释迦牟尼的眼睛部位呈菱形,眼神深藐。袈裟完全贴身没有衣纹,袒露右肩,一道从左肩斜被到右腋下的简单衣边,胸肌和腹肌的肌理分明,身材雄壮健美。小腿上有一条衣纹,小腹有一道刻线,代表裤裙。左肩垂下一条细小的衣角,右手结触地印,左手结禅定印。帕拉铜像大多以合金黄铜铸造,含金成分较高,铜色光润不易生锈。本件作品的材质显露出光彩耀眼的铜色,雕塑技艺洗练简洁,使佛像洋溢着充沛的活力,达到生动传神的艺术效果。
This statue of Shakyamni wears the upper monastic garment, which rendered without apparent folds and covers the left shoulder only. The garment, with simple and fluent lines, set off exquisite shape of draperies hanging over the pedestal. The right hand is extended in the gesture of touching the earth, while the left hand rests in the lap. The Upala stranding to back of a special-typed aureole decorated with auspicious beasts like an elephant and an unicorn. There is a cover from the shoulders to the head, topping a Stupa on the top.
