佛像 來楚生
中國
此印刻有邊款「唯中華民國三十七年（1948），歲次戊子臘八日，佛弟子來楚生為亡妻趙氏過世，願託生西方妙樂國土，敬造釋迦象一區，為國祚永隆，七世父母所生父母因緣眷屬有生之類，同登正覺。」
此印刻釋迦牟尼佛結跏趺坐像一尊，兩側各立一脇侍菩薩。構圖別致，疏密得當，形成寬廣空間效應，以示宏大無比的佛國境界。來氏元配於一九四二年過世，之後為悼念亡妻趙氏，經常刻製佛像，排解內心悲慟，借以託付祝願與哀思。
來楚生原名稷勳，字楚生，一字鳧，號負翁、楚鳧，別署木人、然犀等，別號甚多，晚年署初升。浙江蕭山人。擅詩文、書畫及篆刻。錢君陶謂：「二十世紀七十年代能獨立稱雄於印壇者，唯楚生一人而已。」
邊款釋文：唯中華民國三十七年／歲次戊子臘八日佛弟子／來楚生為／亡妻趙氏過世願託／生西方妙樂國土敬造／釋迦象一區為國祚／永隆七世父母所生父母／因緣眷屬有生之／類同登正覺
