Qing Imperial Palace: Tapestry of Western Pure Land

Silk

織錦極樂世界圖

中國

清宮舊藏。作品以清乾隆時間(1736~1795)宮廷畫士丁觀鵬畫稿為藍圖,藉彩色絲織表現阿彌陀佛西方極樂淨土,呈現極樂世界處處亭台樓閣,七寶池、八功德水、諸上善人聚會一處、花鳥樹木皆說法等情景。為當今舉世最大幅之淨土織錦圖。
 圖中央為阿彌陀佛說法,兩側脇侍觀音及大勢至菩薩。全圖布局對稱,共二百七十八尊不同神態的菩薩、天王、羅漢、伎樂天及迦陵頻伽鳥等前來聽聞佛法。背景可見巍峨高大、金碧輝煌的宮殿建築,山石樹木及祥雲穿插其間。圖上方放射出數道光芒,諸佛端坐霞光中。下方欄楯下有寶池、蓮花。裱邊飾團花和纏枝紋。圖中鈐「鑒藏寶璽」、「五福五代堂」、「古稀天子寶」、「八徵耆念之寶」等印璽。
 圖軸由清代(1644~1911)蘇州織造府的匠師織製,以經線作地,緯線顯花,運用控梭、長跑梭等技法,取近二十種彩色緯絲織製而成。全作以石青色為地,紅、藍、綠、橙、水紅、香色為主色,在青藍基調上形成鮮明對比,柔和對比色相接之處,並使用退暈的方法。在一佛二菩薩的寶蓋和宮殿等重點部位,點綴明亮的金線,增加畫面富麗堂皇的效果。
 整體構圖緊密,繡面精緻,人物變化多元,為一幅兼具宗教性和藝術性的精心傑作。
