蓮行

畫僧 繪畫卷

生卒年不詳。日本鎌倉時代(1185~1333)畫僧。有關蓮行的經歷及記錄均不可考,但從其俗名六郎兵衛,推測原為武士階層,出家後稱入道蓮行。唯一可確認的傳世作品係東征傳繪卷,共五卷,現為日本重要文化財,藏奈良唐招提寺;永仁六年(1298)由鎌倉極樂寺開山住持忍性贈與唐招提寺。
 此繪卷描繪鑑真和尚從中國東渡日本的艱難旅程,卷內出現甚多中國唐代(618~907)場景,背景中之山水、樹木的技法受中國宋代(960~1279)畫風的影響,但也帶有鎌倉地方畫壇特有的氣氛。從其畫作描繪方式可知,蓮行使用傳統大和繪之技法融入當時傳入的宋、元(1271~1368)畫之新描法,特別是人物的描繪,神態舉止,線條清勁簡練,氣韻生動。於十三世紀繪卷中凸顯出特殊的作風,在日本繪畫史上占有重要地位。
 圖中東征傳繪卷第二卷第六段,乃鑑真一行人越過雪山,進入始豐縣(今浙江天台),造訪國清寺之情景。另一圖是描繪鑑真一行人,於海上遇到暴風雨襲擊的驚險景象。
