Buddha Teaching the Dharma

Schist

佛說法圖

巴基斯坦

該浮雕為層樓殿閣的構圖,梯形頂的殿堂中,佛陀結跏趺坐於三頭臥象承托的束腰蓮座上。佛螺髮,偏袒右肩,作說法印,手臂已缺損。上方頂披雕裸形童子捧花供養。佛兩側雕立姿脇侍,以雕飾豐富的立柱分隔,左脇侍菩薩戴敷巾冠飾,袒上身,著裙,雙手殘;右脇侍綰髮,著袒右袈裟,右手掌心向內,左手佚失,可判斷其分別為觀音菩薩和彌勒菩薩。二柱柱身圓形,浮雕供養童子,柱頭飾蓮瓣和瘤牛,混合了印度與波斯的樣式。浮雕底座刻擔花繩的童子。
 上方樓閣分三層,由下而上第一層表現佛塔內佛與菩薩。第二層中間雕三葉形龕內的襌定坐佛,兩側雕欄杆內列柱間有供養天人。第三層圓拱龕和梯形龕內雕坐佛(殘存四尊),襌定或說法,兩側配置脇侍菩薩。
 由佛陀的螺髮、具量感的人體及衣紋的質感表現,推測此為犍陀羅後期作品。
