The statue was originally carved in the fifteenth century, and in 1515, it underwent a three-month repair work under the patronage of a local community of its official and some one hundred devotees. The names of two painters, a carver, and a blacksmith were all recorded. In early Joseon, it was customary for a group of people to join a production or a repair of a Buddhist statue, and their respective jobs were also well documented. The plump face and slightly hunched shoulders are markers of the Buddha images fashioned in the late fifteenth to sixteenth centuries.
