The Thousand-armed Avalokitesvara, which was excavated at Gaobeidian of Hebei Province in China and could be dated back to the first year of the Zhengsheng Era of the Tang Dynasty, is the earliest one all over the country until now. It embodies both the stylistic characteristics and distinctive regional features of sculptures from the early Tang Dynasty. By referencing Buddhist scriptures and drawing upon existing images of multi-armed Avalokitesvara, Chinese craftsmen employed local sculptural traditions by utilizing white marble as the medium and adopting the style integrating the primary statue with the back screen. They innovatively depicted the one-thousand-hand through reliefs of hundreds of small hands, creating an iconic representation of great compassion.
