多寶塔碑 顏真卿
中國
全稱《大唐西京千福寺多寶佛塔感應碑》。岑勛撰文，顏真卿四十四歲時所書，徐浩題額，史華鐫刻。凡三十四行，滿行六十六字。內容記載楚金禪師夜誦《妙法蓮華經》至〈見寶塔品〉時，忽見多寶塔現前，誓以建塔供養之事蹟。建塔期間，楚金並為皇帝及大眾恭書千部《法華經》，是研究法華信仰的重要史料。
此碑結體整密勻穩，豐厚遒美；用筆橫輕豎重，雄秀獨出。整件作品落落大方，質樸雄偉而不失秀穎之美。後世學顏書者多從此碑入手，不僅受到書法界的極大重視，亦是其少見的佛書作品。
顏真卿字清臣。唐代（618～907）書家。京兆萬年（今陝西西安）人，一說山東臨沂人。書法初學褚遂良，後學張旭，五十歲後自創書風，人稱「顏體」，後世推崇其為唐代書法的改革家。
