Mingun Pagoda: Tile with the Third Buddhist Council

Earthenware

明宮塔磚雕

原緬甸曼德勒明宮塔

原位於緬甸曼德勒省(Mandalay)明宮塔(Mingun Pagoda)。該塔又稱莊嚴之塔,由緬甸末代貢榜王朝(Konbaung,1752~1885)第二任國王孟雲王(Bodawpaya,1782~1819在位)於一七九○年開始興建,此造像磚為建該塔而造。
 明宮塔基座呈階梯式,上鑲嵌著綠、棕、黃三個顏色的釉陶造像磚,這些造像磚展現了佛教經典幾次結集時的景象。此磚作正方形,內刻劃一寺院式建築,屋檐三層,每層屋脊均飾龍;屋檐上、底座與四周邊緣均裝飾著法輪圖案。寺內有四位僧人端坐其中。磚雕下方刻有「第三次結集」的文字。
