Shaolin Temple: Bodhidharma Crossing the River

Rubbing

達摩渡江圖

中國

原石存河南省鄭州市登封市少林寺。達摩作梵僧面相狀,頭頂中間高凸無髮,後腦勺周側卷髮,額間有皺紋,眉心糾結,濃眉虯髯,雙目圓睜,高鼻,嘴唇緊閉,戴圓形耳環。身披袈裟,雙手於身前籠袖,衣角隨風飄起,跣足立於蘆葦上。雖無江水之描繪,但人物動態卻明確地呈現渡江的情景。
 達摩面容奇古,作者以粗獷的線條勾勒面部及袒露在外的胸部、足部,用筆簡勁流暢;袈裟衣紋的線條則極為厚重樸實,追求線條的厚度與力度以及飛白的效果。兩種不同風格的用線形成鮮明對比,增強了畫面的形式感。
 圖左側題詩「不生不滅無今無古空空一/點是為佛祖」,與蕭瑟空寂的畫面意境相吻合。題詩後部及碑左側下部分別有河南太守、登封知縣的款題。
