王龍生造像碑

中國

此碑為雙龍碑額樣式,四面皆有刻像。正面分為三層,上層為文殊菩薩與維摩詰論辯說法圖,後有眾多次序而立的聞法弟子。中層龕內為一坐佛與二脇侍菩薩,面部因風化脫落已模糊;龕楣刻供養人及持華蓋的侍從,中間刻二行楷書銘文「襄陵令王龍生」、「平陽令王虎仁」。襄陵與平陽即今山西省境內,可知該碑出自山西省,並由此地的二縣令官發起鐫造。
 龕下兩側淺刻護法獅與供養人,底部下層有亭閣人物相對而談、車騎人物出行圖,為當時社會風習真實寫照。中間刻銘「開光明主王定洛」、「天宮主王吳子」、「袞主王龍刺/像主王文玉」。
 背面上二層各刻一佛龕,均作一佛二菩薩像,第二層龕楣則留有楚漢日月圖。下部有六層供養人造像,部分供養人其衣著與三角微揚的髯鬚,與正面的維摩詰居士同出一轍。旁均刻有功德主大名,部分姓名冠有「邑主」或「邑政」等民間佛教團體之主持人稱謂。背面雖已局部剝落漫漶,但仍可見其布局均衡對稱,造像整齊劃一。
 碑左右兩側雕供養人及侍從,形式一致,上亦刻有捐助者之名,可知該造像碑由同邑眾多人士集資供奉。
