董欽造阿彌陀佛及脇侍像

陝西省西安市八里村出土

一九七四年陝西省西安市八里村出土。整鋪五尊造像置於四足方台上,四周圍設有欄楯。主尊阿彌陀佛螺髮肉髻,桃形鏤空火焰紋頭光,面貌清秀,有北齊(550~577)之風。身軀微平板,然圓渾結實的頸肩,逐漸走向唐代(618~907)造像豐厚特徵。斜披袒右袈裟,輕薄貼體,手作無畏印及與願印,結跏趺坐於束腰蓮座上。蓮座覆蓮一重,仰蓮三重,束腰部亦有鏤空花紋。兩旁為觀音與大勢至菩薩,均頭戴寶冠,寶繒飄垂至臂側,冠後有桃形火焰紋頭光,袒上身,佩胸飾、腕釧。菩薩前方二力士,袒身斜披瓔珞,挺胸鼓腹,身軀前傾,下著長裙,跣足而立。佛座前方設一博山形香爐,底座由侏儒托撐。
 四足方台足前置二護法獅,作蹲踞狀,張口吐舌,昂首翹尾。方台刻發願文「開皇四年(584)七月十五日寧遠將軍武強縣丞董欽敬造彌陀像一區上為皇帝陛下父母兄弟姊妹妻子俱聞正法……」。
 整鋪造像通體鎏金,各尊造像及附件均為單獨鑄造,結構繁複,布局疏密得當,主尊突出,輔侍呼應有序。綜合運用澆鑄、焊接、榫卯等工藝手法,堪為隋代(581~618)銅佛之代表作。
