Huang pointed out that the exhibition included pieces from each representative period of the golden age of Buddhist sculpture. Works have come from the most important caves where Buddhist sculptures are found - Yunkang, Lungmen, Tienlungshan and Hsiangtangshan.
負責這次展出的研究員黃永川說，展品本身的選樣已算十分完全：就時代言，從北魏到唐，跨越佛雕最燦爛的黃金時代，可明顯看出其間風格的演變；在地域言，則包括雲崗、龍門、天龍山、響堂山等地的作品，涵蓋了我國重要石窟。
