Hi Hendrick,
I hope this uploads okay. Here is a picture from Ruan Dongs book of Fujian Crane. 'Paizhi', (fingers in a row), or 'flat palm' is a basic hand form in Calling Crane.
It's not exactly identical (little finger) , but having visited the statue a few times in Yongchung I think it possible that the sculptor be allowed some artistic license in order to make a strong cast....
Best wishes.
Thanks!
I have heard, this technic is Zhao Yang , a unque signature of The Fujian White Crane, that is why is shows up in this statue

Why dont you ask Ron he s a Granmaster of Fujian White Crane Kung Fu .
Firehawk, Mate I'm a "Master" of nothing and certainly not a "Grandmaster" ... please don't refer to me in such terms.
I am a "Seeker" of little knowledge, talent and skill.

Those hand positions also look like the Fung Sao hand position techniques in Iron Ox Southern Mantis .
