岐法起等造一佛二弟子龕像

中國

整體呈窟龕形制,四面皆刻有造像並敷彩漆金,惜年久而多已剝落。
 正面龕內主尊方頤廣額,圓肩,體格渾厚,拱手,結跏趺坐於須彌座上。身著寬袖對襟垂領袈裟,裙裾覆座,紋理曲折波動,富有層次感。龕柱內側浮雕二弟子像,身形體如柱狀,圓臉瘦身,足踏仰覆蓮台。柱外左面淺刻脇侍菩薩,手持蓮枝,足踏仰覆蓮台;右面上端缺不清,下有供養人小像。柱下兩邊各刻一護法獅,造型古拙略見誇張。龕楣中間刻博山形香爐,兩側對稱有飛天。
 背面龕內主尊結跏趺坐,作禪定印,造型與正面佛像基本一致,唯垂裳襞褶刻法略異,作對稱向外飄展狀。二側的弟子、菩薩均刻在龕柱上,柱下配雙獅。龕楣中間刻置博山形香爐,旁為蓮花纏枝圖案,間刻二尊化佛。
 碑左側圖案分刻三層,上層龕內為佛坐像,龕外有二脇侍;中層刻高官騎馬出行圖,後一侍者舉華蓋同行;底層是持蓮供養人像,其侍者或舉華蓋或跪提裙襬,可知其身分高貴。圖像間隙處刻「岐黑化」、「岐薩得」等姓名。
 碑右側上半部是造像發願文「大統十六年(550)九月一日/佛弟子岐法起造白/石像一區為七世父母/所生父母家口大小/無病長命常與善/俱一時成佛弟子伏和」。下為二層持蓮供養人像,間刻供養人姓名。
