Java: Seated Buddha
Bronze
佛倚坐像
印尼爪哇出土
印尼爪哇（Java）出土。為中爪哇時期（約7～13世紀）傑出的青銅作品之一。佛呈童顏相，透著純真而慧敏的氣貌。螺髮粗大，肉髻低平，五官細緻。雙手右掌在上、左掌在下，手指伸張，其中無名指相接觸，宛如推動法輪，因而亦被認為作說法印相。雙腿下垂，倚坐於一方形層疊的台座上，足踏形式古拙的雙層小蓮台。台座兩側各有一帶角的獅子，前足蹬起，似欲從基座的角落躍出，相貌逗趣，樣式獨特而少見。
此造像將豐富的藝術內涵作了完美的呈現，佛靈敏的手指、簡潔的袈裟衣紋，以及躍動的瑞獅，都與其柔和豐潤的身軀、靜謐的表情形成了鮮明的對比，而身體的塑造和四肢的雕刻，細膩而精微。
