Yangon: Footprint of the Buddha

Stone with gold, glass and bitumen

佛足印

緬甸仰光出土

緬甸仰光(Yangon)出土。此作以石材敷金而成,然部分敷金已脫落。在佛像尚未出現前,印度人即以佛足印來代表佛陀,東南亞許多國家亦沿襲此風。
 此足印尺寸遠大於真人,外圍為龍王所環繞,龍身刻有紋路,原以彩色玻璃裝飾,現已佚失。五根腳趾幾乎等長,上有凸起的海螺紋樣,趾前方有一方形卯眼。足掌末端有一蓮花法輪,外飾兩圈同心圓,其餘分隔成一百零八格方格,內飾坐佛、寶塔、象、馬、獅、鹿、魚、鳥、蓮蓬、花、山、水、建築等敷金圖案,顯得富麗堂皇。
