伊闕佛龕碑 褚遂良
中國
又稱《三龕記》。刻於河南省洛陽市龍門石窟賓陽洞內，岑文本撰文，褚遂良書。篆額題「伊闕佛龕之碑」，伊闕即龍門山。碑高252公分，寬154公分。凡三十三行，行五十字。記述唐太宗（626～649在位）第四子魏王泰為生母文德皇后長孫氏追薦祈福而營造石窟之事蹟。此碑拓本甚多，自宋代（960～1279）以來歷代均有傳拓，今碑已剝蝕不堪。
此碑為褚遂良四十六歲之力作，用筆方挺剛健，雄偉俊逸，氣勢開張，結體平正，參有隸法，與晚年所書《雁塔聖教序》的圓轉流暢有所不同，可見褚書之變化，正所謂一碑有一碑的面目，饒有趣味。
褚遂良字登善。唐代（618～907）書法家。錢塘（今浙江杭州）人，一說陽翟（今河南禹州）人。擅楷書，結體開朗勁美。與歐陽詢、虞世南、薛稷並稱初唐（618～712）四家。
