Compare with a bronze figure of the infant buddha in the collection of the Asian Art Museum, San Francisco, illustrated in René-Yvon Lefebvre d'Argencé, Chinese, Korean and Japanese Sculpture in the Avery Brundage Collection, San Francisco, 1974, pl. 185, where the textual origins of the iconography is discussed.
