Talakha Monastery: Four-Armed Avalokitesvara
Lacquered wood
四臂觀音菩薩像
不丹
此像身形纖長，作一面四臂相。頭戴五葉寶冠，正面葉片斷裂，露出阿彌陀佛坐像；雙耳上方各裝飾一朵花。圓臉，髹冷金，髮塗青色，五官以色彩描繪。二主臂當胸合十；其餘二手屈舉向上，結論辯印。
菩薩袒上身，飾項圈。帔帛繞肩部和手腕後垂下，帔帛及裙以精緻金線描繪繁複的紋樣，下襬優雅覆於蓮花座台面上。蓮花座上下緣飾聯珠紋，立面刻劃活潑生動的花瓣，為不丹的典型樣式。台座背面以金漆書銘文，內容意為「向大慈悲者祈願」。此作現藏於不丹廷布（Thimphu）塔拉卡寺（Talakha Gompa）。
