Sukhothai: Walking Buddha

Bronze

佛行走像

泰國素可泰出土

泰國素可泰(Sukhothai)出土。佛肉髻高聳,髻頂上置火焰紋飾,螺髮齊整,額前髮際呈弓形起伏。臉龐鵝卵形,下頦圓滿,眉如彎月,與鼻相連,形成優美弧線。眼角上揚,嘴唇豐潤,以陰刻線勾勒出嘴形,笑意更鮮明。雙肩寬挺,雙手纖細頎長,右手下垂微擺於身後側,左手施無畏印。雖雙腿下部已損,但右膝微抬,依稀可辨行走姿態。袈裟右袒,輕薄貼體,左肩衣角摺疊成帶狀。左手袈裟下襬自然飄垂,呈波浪形,展現身軀移動的韻律感。
 此種形態的作品初見於泰國素可泰(1238~1438)初期,推測其造型可能源於錫蘭(今斯里蘭卡)佛陀自忉利天為母說法後返回人間的故事圖,也有可能與佛陀開悟後於菩提伽耶經行的聖事有關。
 此像雖肩寬胸厚、大腿壯實,但身軀線條顯得柔美流暢,體態瀟灑輕盈,為素可泰時期佛行走像中典型的範例之一。
