Guangzhai Temple Seven Jewel Tower: Buddha Triad Niche

Limestone

姚元景造一佛二菩薩龕像

原陝西省西安市寶慶寺七寶台

原位於陝西省西安市寶慶寺七寶台之浮雕龕像。龕像原本安置在光宅寺,後寺毀移至寶慶寺,清(1644~1911)末殘存的三十多件浮雕佛龕分別流散至海外。該件為流傳至日本龕像之一,現為日本重要文化財。
 龕楣刻華蓋並雕飾卷草、寶珠、珠串、流蘇等圖案,兩側飛天飛舞,彩帶飄揚。佛倚坐於中央,兩側脇侍菩薩立於仰覆蓮台上。佛面相方圓,螺髮高肉髻,大耳垂肩,肩寬厚胸,身材健碩。著袒右袈裟,褶紋線條流暢,雙足分踏二蓮。頭光以輻射狀線條呈現,頗為別致。
 佛左脇菩薩右手上舉執長尾拂,左手提淨瓶;右脇菩薩左手托物,右手握帔帛,腰身稍扭富有動感,姿態與左脇侍對稱。二脇侍均頭戴冠飾,袒上身,斜披絡腋,佩項圈,下著薄裙,帔帛自雙肩垂下飄逸,顯得富麗華美,表現唐代(618~907)宮廷貴族的時尚。
 該像刻有銘記「長安四年(704)九月十八日書竊惟大雄利見弘濟無邊真諦克明神通自在是以三千世界禪河注而不竭百億須彌甘露灑而恆滿歸依妙理無乃可乎朝散大夫行司農寺丞姚元景慈悲道長忍辱心遐悟朱紱之儻來沿紺池而利往發願上下平安爰於光宅寺法堂石柱造像一鋪爾其篆刻彰施儀形圓滿……尚方監主簿姚元景造」。
