Pingliang: Pagoda Sculpture

Sandstone

卜氏造像塔

甘肅省平涼市莊浪縣出土

甘肅省平涼市莊浪縣出土。該塔現存五層,由四面雕刻的方石依次重疊成梯形,無榫卯。石塊的高度範圍由32.6~52公分,寬度由31~43公分不等。每層主題除一佛二菩薩,一佛二弟子配以天王、力士、飛天及供養人外,還有佛傳故事如九龍灌頂、車匿回宮、寂靜入滅及《妙法蓮華經》中釋迦、多寶二佛並坐等情節,另有思惟彌勒、交腳彌勒、文殊、普賢及維摩詰等,人物眾多,構圖繁複。
 圖中所見,由上而下:第一層,右面為一佛二菩薩,左面為車匿回宮;第二層,左右面上層皆為一佛二菩薩,下層則刻相對的祥獸及瑞獅;第三層,右面為一佛二菩薩,左面為思惟彌勒及二菩薩;第四層,右面為一佛二菩薩,上有五小尊坐佛,左面刻佛涅槃像,佛上方刻弟子舉哀,佛右側阿難跪地扶佛首,左側大迦葉撫佛足,下段則刻雜耍賣藝人的熱鬧場面,一靜一動,對比強烈;第五層,右面為一佛二菩薩二弟子,左面為釋迦、多寶二佛並坐,菩薩和飛天來迎的情景。四面浮雕除了描繪佛陀重要的事蹟外,也展現了當時彌勒信仰的流行,是大乘佛法興盛於北魏(386~534)的具體顯現。
 此造像塔雕刻精美,刀法純熟,線條流利,內容豐富,為濃郁的西北石雕特色。
