Stele
CHINA; Northern Wei dynasty (386–534), dated 546; Commissioned by Wang Longsheng; Stone; H: 233 cm; Shanghai Museum, China |
| This stele is carved on all four sides. The front is divided into three registers, with Vimalakirti and Manjusri in debate at the top, attended by observers. The middle register is mostly worn away but depicts a niched Buddha flanked by two Bodhisattvas. The lintel of the niche features donors accompanied by servants holding parasols. Inscribed beside each figure are the names Wang Longsheng |
