Ajanta Cave 1: Buddha Teaching the Dharma
Stone
阿旃陀石窟第1窟佛說法像
印度馬哈拉施特拉邦奧蘭加巴德
位於阿旃陀石窟（Ajanta Caves）第1窟佛龕。為笈多王朝（約320～550）光輝時期的佛教雕刻藝術代表作。佛帶圓形頭光，外緣繪一圈小花紋飾。螺髻整齊，鼻高唇厚，雙目垂視，神情肅穆。身軀厚實，袈裟薄衣貼體，結跏趺坐，作說法印。
主尊兩側脇侍菩薩髮髻巍峨，皆戴寶冠，手持拂塵，身披瓔珞。佛頭光兩旁各有一供養飛天虔敬禮佛，其身旁刻有雲紋。
台座立面中央雕有象徵佛陀最初說法的法輪，左右對稱雕雙鹿及弟子。弟子及右側菩薩手部略有損毀。造像殘留顏料，可得知佛龕原有彩繪。
