Mogao Cave 17: Monk

僧人像
甘肅省酒泉市敦煌市莫高窟第17窟出土
甘肅省酒泉市敦煌市莫高窟第17窟出土。畫中僧人方臉大耳，彎眉、細眼、直鼻，斂目且緊閉雙唇，喉結亦描繪得清晰可見。身著袈裟，雙手結禪定印，神態端嚴，沉穩自在，於坐具上結跏趺坐。其左後方的樹上掛有行囊、念珠，有雲頭裝飾的僧鞋及水瓶則分置於坐具前後。
此圖為藏經洞出土的繪畫中，以白描技法繪製的代表作，為九世紀末至十世紀初的作品。全圖未施任何色彩，以墨線勾勒而成，用線有粗細、輕重的變化。從多次描繪的眉毛，及精心刻劃的五官，即可看出臉部是畫師著力之處。衣紋線條變化較多，表現出袈裟的垂重感，身後的樹木則具枯木橫生的趣味。
