Gamsansa Temple: Maitreya Bodhisattva
Granite
彌勒菩薩像
原韓國慶尚北道慶州市甘山寺遺址
原位於韓國慶尚北道慶州市甘山寺遺址。該菩薩立像與同處出土的阿彌陀佛立像，均為統一新羅時期（668～935）貴族金志誠為其往生父母發願供養所造。此像融合印度笈多王朝（約320～550）造像樣式及雕工技巧，造型優美，具有濃厚的西域風貌。一九六二年指定為韓國國寶第81號。
菩薩高髮髻，綴耳飾，戴化佛寶冠。造型優雅簡潔，臉形豐圓，肩寬碩圓，腰細，有豐腴感。帔帛輕巧，衣褶清晰，胸飾瓔珞呈「U」形垂至膝前。身後頭光、身光有三重圓相，外圍以火焰紋裝飾，紋彩斑斕，相較於頭光及身光的簡潔明快，呈現出華麗與樸實的對比之美。
此菩薩像豐腴的面容和三屈式姿態等，表現出統一新羅時期藝術美之特徵。寶冠上刻有化佛，由銘文得知，是彌勒菩薩。
