The full, yet somewhat squared facial features, robust body and stylization of the boldly cast lotus lappet base all indicate a 15th century date. Compare, for example, a closely related gilt-bronze figure of Bhaisajyaguru Buddha, dated to the first year of Jingtai (1450), illustrated in Gems of Beijing Cultural Relics Series: Buddhist Statues (I), Beijing, 1999, p. 153, no. 115.
