Portable Shrine with the Life of the Buddha

石雕佛傳龕像

巴基斯坦

巴基斯坦五至六世紀作品,攜帶式禮拜用佛龕。原為左右對稱,合頁相連,今另一半已佚,仍可見扣環遺痕。
 龕內部分成上下二部分,表現佛傳故事之降誕及涅槃。上部刻劃悉達多太子降誕圖,摩耶夫人居中,頭梳高髻,身飾華服、瓔珞,作三屈式立姿,手攀無憂樹,悉達多太子自右脇而出。夫人前方為帝釋天,手持帛,屈膝侍立於右側,準備承接新生太子。二者之間為剛出生的太子,呈立姿,意喻其行走七步,足生蓮花的場景。摩耶夫人左側為胞妹及宮女。龕下部為涅槃圖,佛陀右脇而臥,兩側各有人物,象徵舉哀群像。主尊頭上方刻有樹葉,應為娑羅雙樹。
 龕外部刻一人像側面,束髮,髮帶飾聯珠紋,絡腮鬍,身略向前蹲坐,足蹬厚靴。背負柳簍,肩負一童,僅見童之身軀及雙足。其衣著及飾物為貴霜王朝(約1~3世紀)的服飾風格,常見於犍陀羅浮雕。
