Lopburi: Four-Armed Avalokitesvara

Sandstone

四臂觀音菩薩像

泰國華富里地區發現

泰國華富里(Lop Buri)發現。此吳哥時期(約9〜15世紀)作品因具有巴方(Baphuon)造像風格,學者推測製作於柬埔寨,後被帶至泰國。此像髮髻中雕有阿彌陀佛坐像,故知當為觀音菩薩。
 菩薩一面四臂,惜手臂已毀損,原應持有法器。厚實的胸膛、寬闊的臀部以及粗短的雙腿,使整體顯得非常壯碩,造型與多數典型的吳哥時期菩薩像一樣,人物都向前稍傾而臀部穩固不動。
 此像頂戴寶冠,上雕刻精緻的花紋,髮髻呈圓錐形層層相疊。除了寶冠外,沒有任何其他裝飾品,乃是闍耶跋摩七世(Jayavarman VII,1181~約1220在位)時期之前的風格。其面呈方形,臉部特徵與巴方風格相似,雙眉相連呈「一」字形,杏形雙眼,嘴闊唇厚,嘴角明顯上揚。下半身著山樸(Sampot),腰部繫帶,上刻細膩的花朵、聯珠紋和葉瓣紋樣;中間雕飾蓮花紋樣的方形扣,以扣住雙層的錨形飾帶。
