思惟菩薩半跏像

韓國

此類半跏思惟像在中國歷史上可追溯到敦煌莫高窟最早期的石窟(一說北涼397~439;一說是北魏386~534),且於北魏至東魏(534~550)、北齊(550~577)時期盛行於河北等地,融合了釋迦「太子思惟」與彌勒的信仰。韓國三國時期(57 BCE~668)半跏思惟像更遍布於各地佛教中心。該像與韓國國寶第83號思惟菩薩半跏像,皆為高超塑造和鑄造技術相結合的作品,也是半跏像的代表作。一九六二年指定為韓國國寶第78號。
 此像坐於高台座上,呈現穩重的三角形式。頭戴寶冠,由塔、日月及寶珠三種紋樣排列組成,中央空頂,冠帶垂至耳下,臉部方碩,眉細鼻長,肩圓胸平,右手以食、中指支頤,左手撫右足,右腿屈膝置於左腿,左足踩踏蓮花。衣褶簡潔流暢,均衡有序,帔巾從兩肩垂下於腹部之下形成「X」形,具中國北魏風格。此像因其優美獨特的氣質,儼然已成為韓國半跏像的象徵。
