安岳臥佛院石窟第3龕臥佛像

四川安岳

位於臥佛溝北崖中部,雕刻在距地表5公尺的崖壁上。臥佛全長23公尺,背北面南,頭東腳西,雙手自然貼於體側,雙腿伸直併攏。臉龐略方圓,長眉秀目,雙眼微闔,鼻梁高挺,容貌安詳自在。該像左脇而臥,與通常所見佛陀涅槃之像北首右脇臥姿勢不同。
 臥佛上方刻有佛臨終說法場面,其中有二十一尊造像。中間釋迦牟尼佛結跏趺坐,左手撫膝,右手施說法印。佛右側前排刻四弟子一菩薩,後排刻天龍八部五身;佛左側前排刻三弟子一菩薩一密迹金剛,後排刻二弟子和天龍八部三身。臥佛足端雕刻一密迹金剛,面容悲哀,袒上身,著短裙,左手下壓伸掌,右手屈肘上舉握拳。
 雕刻者巧妙地利用岩體裂隙造型取勢,臥佛橫臥的結構線條簡潔分明。在佛陀身體的前面,安排面佛盤坐的佛母摩耶夫人,又於臥佛頭、足端各雕刻一力士,增添了造像的節奏感。石刻保存尚好,輪廓清晰,造像刀法簡練明快,衣紋線條勁爽流暢,是現存中國唐代(618~907)唯一的左脇臥佛大型摩崖造像。
