在愛丁堡的蘇格蘭國家博物館裡,珍藏有前丹麥駐中國大使夫人安俳盧丹(Ann Paludan,1928-2014)在上世紀中葉拍攝的上萬張中國雕塑的舊照片,被稱為安俳盧丹中國歷代雕塑圖像館(The Ann Paludan Image Library of Historical Chinese Sculptures)。
Consisting of over 10,000 prints and slides of sculptures from over 200 sites in China, the Ann Paludan Image Library provides a unique source for the study of Chinese sculpture. Ann Paludan moved to Beijing in 1972, where she developed a life-long scholarly interest in Chinese sculpture. Over the course of the following decades, she published several books on the topic, notably The Imperial Ming Tombs (1981); The Chinese Spirit Road (1991); and Chinese Sculpture (2006). She donated the photographs taken for her research to National Museums Scotland in 2014. Now, with the generous support of her family, the prints and slides have been digitised and made available online for research and study purposes. Taken during repeated visits to China from the 1970s to the early 2000s, the photographic prints and slides document the changes, both natural and manmade, that cultural heritage sites underwent during the Cultural Revolution and the reform era. The photographed sculptures span the entire range of China’s sculptural tradition, from religious statuary, cliff carvings, and tomb statuary, to architectural features, dating from the Neolithic to the 20th century.

在這些諸多的圖片中,有幾張文革時的毛雕塑引人矚目。兩張是在鄭州河南省博物院門口拍攝的,是砂頁岩的:
兩張是在洛陽東方紅拖拉機廠院內拍攝的,是漢白玉的:
這兩座雕像,不是最早的,也不是最好的,是那個時代的象徵,至今仍然存在。
