阿彌陀淨土圖
內蒙古自治區阿拉善盟額濟納旗黑水城出土
內蒙古自治區阿拉善盟額濟納旗黑水城出土。黃色身形的阿彌陀佛帶頭光和背光，身光繪有放射狀的五彩條紋，靠背飾有巾帛、寶珠、宮殿及一對迦陵頻伽鳥，再外為紅色背光。手結禪定印，結跏趺坐於仰覆蓮座上，蓮座自水池中升起，旁出二紅蓮及帶葉蓮蕾。佛肉髻呈尖形，著紅色袈裟，衣紋用深色單線勾勒。其手、腳掌心為紅色，容貌、衣紋的描繪，明顯地受到藏傳佛教的影響。
圖左右下角有二脇侍菩薩相對坐於蓮座上，戴寶冠、耳璫及胸飾，手結印，腰身輕扭，曲腿而坐，予人生動活潑、明朗輕快之感。
此圖應是表現西方極樂世界。佛身後的寶樹、瑞禽、宮殿、寶珠及水池中的蓮花均為極樂世界的景致。
